What is a good fertilizer for English Privet?

Answer 1

A balanced fertilizer is a good fertilizer for English privet (Ligustrum spp).

Specifically, a balanced fertilizer has an equal ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. An English privet has no need for greater amounts of any one of the three major nutrients that promote healthy plants and soils. In fact, more than important than yearly fertilizer treatments is the regular scheduling of pruning since the hedge grows quickly.

Answer 2

Organic matter at planting or transplanting and balanced, dry treatments yearly describe the best fertilizers for English ivy (Helix hedera). Organic matter includes bark, compost, manure or peat moss. Balanced, dry treatments may be numbered 12-4-8 or 15-15-15 for nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content.
