The Chinese privet (Ligustrum lucidum) was first planted in Argentina in the early 20th century, when it was seen as a desirable addition to parks and gardens for its year-round green leaves. An evergreen tree native to southern China, its presence in the South American country quickly spread, both as an ornamental and urban tree, particularly in the central province of Córdoba.
Cuando el siempreverde, o Ligustrum lucidum por su nombre científico, llegó de China a Argentina, a principios del siglo XX, encandiló el deseo de que parques y jardines tengan un árbol de hojas verdes durante todo el año. Árbol de hoja perenne originario del sur de China, su presencia se extendió rápidamente tanto como árbol ornamental como urbano, sobre todo en la provincia de Córdoba, en el centro del país.
