Variegated Privet is a fast grower. If you're looking for a quick screen or accent plant, this is the one! I especially love these Privet's when they're trimmed up like a tree. Environmental stress can cause this plant to go into survival mode and revert some variegated areas back to green in order to photosynthesize more easily.
