Prune a ligustrum in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. This timing helps promote healthy growth and allows you to shape the plant effectively. If needed, you can also do light pruning throughout the growing season to maintain its shape. Avoid heavy pruning in late summer or fall, as this can stress the plant and lead to winter damage.
