Oval Leaf Privet - Ligustrum ovalifolium is a species of flowering plant in the olive family Oleaceae. It is also known as Korean privet, California privet, garden privet, and oval-leaved privet.  Oval Leaf Privet - Ligustrum ovalifolium is native to Japan and Korea, but it has been widely cultivated as an ornamental plant in many countries particularly in the UK.

Oval Leaf Privet - Ligustrum ovalifolium is a dense, fast-growing, deciduous evergreen shrub or small tree that grows to 10–15 feet (3.0–4.6 m) tall and wide.   Its thick, fleshy leaves are green on the top and greenish-yellow on the underside.  It produces white flowers in midsummer, which have a pungent fragrance that some people may find unpleasant.  The flowers are followed by black, poisonous berries that are eaten by many birds.

Oval Leaf Privet - Ligustrum ovalifolium is a popular choice for hedging, as it can be clipped into a formal shape and is very tolerant of pollution, sea winds, sun, shade, and dry soil.  However, Oval Leaf Privet - Ligustrum ovalifolium can also be invasive in some areas, as it spreads by seeds and suckers.  It is also used as a food plant by the larvae of some moth species, and its flowers attract bees.

The current height of our Oval Leaf Privet - Ligustrum ovalifolium plants is approximately 15-30cm and they can be planted out all year round.
