    The best thing would be to look up and read about it,  if you have the conditions/soil/ pest control etc you can decide if it’s for you.
    Seems its a type of Privet  so probably easy. 
    This is very informative, see what you think.

    It could cost you twice as much as you think! That sort of formally clipped shrub normally looks better planted as a pair of sentinels.
