Use Ligustrum vulgare 'Cheyenne' when you want a hardy, fast-filling hedge with a classic privet look. This cultivar forms an upright to slightly spreading shrub with dense green foliage that responds well to pruning and shaping.

In early to mid-summer, you can expect clusters of small white flowers that contrast nicely with the leaves. As the season progresses, the plant may develop dark berries that add late-season interest, but they are not for eating and should be kept away from children and pets.

For best performance, plant in full sun to part shade. In brighter light you will generally get the fullest growth and the cleanest hedge lines, while partial shade is useful where the site is a bit protected or where afternoon sun is intense.

Mature size is typically in the 6-8 ft range in many landscapes, and it can be maintained shorter with regular trimming. Space plants to allow air movement if you are making a long hedge, and plan on periodic pruning to keep the base full and the top from getting too wide.

Provide average moisture as the plant establishes, then water during extended dry periods. Prune after flowering if you want to preserve seasonal display, or trim as needed to keep a crisp hedge. Remove any dead or damaged branches in late winter or early spring to encourage strong new growth.
