Simply trim up your bushes to the shape you like with one exception. Do not trim the bottom of your Ligustrum Hedge in at an angle. You want the bottom to be at least as wide as the rest of the bush so it gets sunlight and stays healthy. The Wavy Leaf Ligustrum makes a perfect privacy hedge.
How do you prune Ligustrums?
You can rejuvenate the ligustrum by cutting it back to six to twelve inches tall in late February. New growth will come from the stump and you can trim that growth occasionally as your shrub grows back into a pleasing form. Remember always to keep the bottom of the shrubs wider than the top so sunshine can penetrate.
How do you reduce the height of a privet hedge?
Tie a string between the stakes. Shear the top of the privet along the string line, then shear the face of the hedge down to the bottom in a diagonal downward slope. The hedge should be narrower at the top than the base on each side in order to allow light to touch the entire hedge face.
