Wax Leaf Privet, botanical name Ligustrum japonicum 'Texanum', is an evergreen shrub that adapts well to most landscape styles in the Southwest. From northern China, Korea, and Japan, this lush and compact shrub is a good candidate for topiary forms, bringing a formal look to gardens across the Southwest. In fact, it is common to see the Wax Leaf Privet adorning landscapes shaped into cones, globes or the classic ""vertical poodle"" forms. Homeowners can bring an elegant look to an entrance by growing poodle form shrubs in containers, flanking the front door or porch steps.

Heat tolerant and cold hardy, you can expect the Wax Leaf Privet to keep its lush, dense green foliage all year long. This evergreen shrub provides year-round interest. It requires low to moderate water use and thrives in full sun or partial shade environments. Easy to care for, 'Texanum' is a fast-growing, small to medium shrub that blooms profusely in the spring. Springtime brings beautiful, fragrant, white flower clusters that attract hummingbirds and other pollinators. A staple landscaping plant in the Southwest, this bird-friendly shrub will bring nature home to an urban garden or homes along the coast.

It makes a great tamed hedge and requires less maintenance than most other hedges, which is why you often see the Wax Leaf Privet shrub used along the border between homes, as a privacy hedge or windbreak. Homeowners that live near busy streets will appreciate its excellent sound barrier features. Great for mass planting, you will often see this shrub shaped into pyramid forms for topiary gardens flanking walkways and gateways. We offer a free design consultation at our nurseries to make your landscaping goals a reality.

    These amazing plants have totally changed my backyard! We used to have an ugly view of a street that dominated our view from our backyard. We had Moon Valley Nurseries plant 12 of these privets along our back fence, and now instead of an ugly street we have a beautiful hedge! in fact, my daughter said we should start hosting our backyard as a wedding venue! It made that much of a difference. I truly cannot recommend these enough, and Moon Valley Nurseries makes the experience so easy and flawless. Thank you Moon Valley Nurseries!
