A hardy, fast-growing shrub with glossy green leaves that forms a dense, elegant hedge or screen with ease
FEATURES:
- Excellent choice for hedges, borders, and privacy screens
- Deep green, glossy foliage that holds its color all season
- Fragrant white flowers in summer attract pollinators
- Tolerant of pruning, heat, drought, and urban conditions
- Cold-hardy selection developed for northern climates
- Fast-growing and adaptable to a wide range of soils
- Ships on our trucks because of the size of the tree; does not fit in a box
Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip
For a dense hedge, space plants about two feet apart and prune lightly after planting to encourage branching from the base. Once established, trim two to three times per season to maintain a uniform shape. Cheyenne Privet looks especially refined when paired with ornamental grasses or hydrangeas for contrast. A layer of mulch helps conserve moisture and keep roots cool.
Growth Facts
- Hardiness Zone: 4-8
- Mature Height: 8-12' tall
- Mature Width: 4-6' wide
- Exposure: Full Sun to Partial Shade
- Spacing: 2-4' apart

Frequently Asked Questions
Cheyenne Privet is a fast grower, often adding 12 to 18 inches per year once established. It quickly fills in to form a lush, dense hedge.
Prune in late spring or summer after flowering to shape the hedge and maintain density. Light trimming throughout the season encourages full, healthy growth.
In colder regions, it may drop some or all of its leaves in winter, especially during harsh seasons. In milder climates, it often remains semi-evergreen with partial foliage retention.
