Privet responds particularly well to regular trimming, which encourages thick, dense growth rather than a sparse, leggy hedge.
Keeping privet dense
- Trimming two or three times during the growing season
- Light, regular cuts rather than infrequent hard pruning
- Reduction where the hedge has become overgrown or thin
Privet also tolerates hard cutting well if it's become overgrown, making recovery relatively straightforward.
