Common Privet is often used as a hedge plant at garden borders, because it tolerates pruning and is quite dense. Privets are semi-evergreen shrubs whose genus name comes from the Latin word “ligare“ (meaning: “to tie”), because the twigs were used for wattle. In the past, its berries were used to give wine an attractive color.
