Growing for Performance, Not Just Appearance
When landscape professionals choose plant material, they’re not just selecting color or size — they’re investing in long-term performance.
At Eco Nursery, every decision in the growing process is intentional. From soil preparation to spacing, irrigation, and timing, our goal is to deliver plants that transition smoothly from nursery to landscape and continue performing well long after installation.
This 3-gallon Sunshine Ligustrum is a great example of that philosophy in action.
Why Sunshine Ligustrum Remains a Reliable Choice
Sunshine Ligustrum has earned its place as a staple in Southern landscapes thanks to its vibrant golden foliage, compact growth habit, and adaptability across a wide range of projects.
Whether used for hedging, foundation plantings, or large commercial installations, this variety offers consistent structure and visual impact with minimal maintenance requirements — a key factor for both contractors and property owners.
What Happens Before a Plant Leaves the Nursery
Long before a plant is loaded for delivery, the work has already been done in the field.
At Eco Nursery, we focus on:
Developing balanced, well-established root systems
Maintaining proper spacing for uniform growth
Monitoring nutrition and irrigation for steady, controlled development
These steps ensure that plants like Sunshine Ligustrum arrive ready to establish quickly and withstand the conditions of Southern landscapes.
