Privet Atrovirens Ø 9 cm

Privet Atrovirens is a dependable choice for creating green structure in the garden. This semi-evergreen shrub is easy to shape and keeps its tidy presence through much of the year, making it a classic option for hedging.

Location

Place Privet Atrovirens in the garden in full sun; it will also grow well in shade. It suits outdoor planting and settles into a wide range of soil types.

Contents

Supplied as a young privet plant in a nursery pot of Ø 9 cm.

Growth habit and size

This shrub forms a dense, structural hedge with a green look for much of the year. When fully grown, it typically reaches around 1.50–2 m, depending on how you maintain it.

Plant care

After planting, allow the plant time to settle in before feeding; start using organic fertiliser from at least 6 weeks after planting.

Pruning and maintenance

For a thick hedge, plant about 4 per metre. In the build-up phase, trim the new growth 2–3 times per year, cutting it back by roughly half. Once the hedge has reached the height you want, clipping twice a year—spring and early autumn—keeps it neat and well-shaped.

Winter hardiness

Privet Atrovirens is hardy down to around –15°C, making it a reliable choice for Irish gardens in winter.

Instructions

Plant outdoors in a sunny spot, though it also copes well with shade and adapts to many soil types. For a dense hedge, space around 4 plants per metre. While the hedge is establishing, trim new growth 2–3 times a year, cutting it back by about half; repeat until the desired height is reached. Once established, clip twice a year, ideally in spring and early autumn. Apply organic fertiliser from at least 6 weeks after planting.
