Sunshine Ligustrum (Ligustrum sinense ‘Sunshine’) is a compact, non-invasive shrub prized for its vibrant golden-yellow foliage that stays colorful year-round. It adds brightness and contrast to landscapes, whether used as a low hedge, accent plant, or in mixed garden borders. This easy-care plant thrives in full sun, tolerates heat and drought once established, and requires minimal pruning to maintain its tidy shape.
Care Needs:
• Light: Full sun for best color
• Water: Moderate; keep soil evenly moist until established, then water as needed during dry periods
• Pruning: Light pruning in late winter or early spring to shape or control size
• Fertilizer: Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring for healthy growth
