Golden Privet

Golden Privet is a vibrant, semi-evergreen shrub perfect for creating striking ornamental hedges with year-round colour interest. Space plants 45-60cm apart to establish a robust, well-filled hedge within 18-24 months. Tighter spacing (45cm) delivers faster density and a more uniform appearance, whilst wider spacing (60cm) allows better air circulation and reduces establishment costs. This vigorous grower thrives in full sun to partial shade, where its golden foliage displays most brilliantly. Responds excellently to regular pruning and trimming, making it ideal for formal hedgerows, boundary screens, and contemporary garden designs across the UK.
