S1721Forestiera neomexicana New Mexico Privet
A deciduous shrub to 20 ft. with
delicate leaves turning yellow in fall. Pruning creates an open, airy tree form; if left to sprout at the base, it fills out for dense screening that can be hedged to any height. Pest resistant. Tiny yellow flowers bloom before leaves emerge. Both male & female plants
are needed for berries to form. (The seedlings we sell are too young to flower. Buy two or more, wait & see.) Attracts birds. Sow seed in fall or cold stratify 30 days & sow in spring.
