Ligustrum sinense is the most free-flowering deciduous privet, forming a large, spreading, arching shrub packed with panicles of white flowers in midsummer, followed by small, round, black fruit. Tough and indestructible, it makes an effective boundary hedge and can easily be pruned.

Grow Ligustrum sinense in moist but well-drained soil in full sun or light shade.
