Ligustrum japonicum
Japanese Privet
7
Japan and Korea

Evergreen privet
 
 
 
Frequently confused with L. lucidum. The Japanese Privet has leaves which are much more glossy than those of L. lucidum. Also, the Japanese Privet has raised veins on the underside of the leaves while on L, lucidum they are sunken. Although not as vigorous as L. lucidum its dark green lustrous foliage makes it a better ornamental.
