One of the world's most-popular conifers, but in smaller form! It has a narrow upright growth habit with stiffly erect branches holding long, radially arranged dark-green needles & showy red berries. Like full sun & reaches 6’ to 15’ tall.

Taxus baccata 'Fastigiata Stricta'

A handsome evergreen shrub with a narrow columnar form. Its rich dark green needles are larger than that of English Yew, densely cloaking its strong upright branches.

Taxus baccata 'Goldener Zwerg'

Features premium golden yellow foliage that turns a rich dark green in winter in a slow growing, compact, neat & tidy form. Growing just a few inches per year, this narrow column will fit in small garden spaces adding stunning color & vertical accent to rock gardens, miniature theme gardens & even containers on the balcony or patio. Occasional light pruning will help encourage its most formal appearance. Has a narrow upright growth habit & reaches roughly 6’ tall by 3’ wide in size, growing 3” to 6” a year.

Taxus baccata 'Green Diamond'

Bright green new growth contrasts sharply against the mature needles that are a dark glossy green on top & a paler green underneath. Characteristic of the English Yew, the needles are spirally arranged around the shoots. Small berry-like fruit are a bonus attraction to this plant that does well in shade, so it is a perfect understory plant. Has a globe-shaped growth habit & reaches roughly 6’ tall by 4’ wide.

 

Taxus baccata ‘Stricta Aurea’

Dense, needle-like, evergreen foliage has golden margins that become more intense in warm, sunny exposures. Vibrant red berry-like fruit stands out in the fall - do not ingest! The stately, upright form works well as a landscape specimen or planted en masse for a privacy screen or hedge. Takes well to shearing. Has a narrow upright growth habit & reaches roughly 15’ to 30’ tall by 4’ to 8’ wide.

Taxus cuspidata ‘Amersfoort’

Adds an interesting texture to the collector’s garden. Has a broad upright growth habit & reaches roughly 6’ tall by 4’ wide in size, growing 3” to 6” a year.

 

Taxus cuspidata 'Dwarf Bright Gold'

Each soft-yellow needle has a bright-green striation along its length, which produces a great color combo. The mid-size conifer has an upright branching habit that is wider than tall. Although very hardy, the foliage appreciates protection from scorching summer sun. Has a spreading growth habit & reaches roughly 6’ tall by 12’ wide, growing 6” to 10” a year.

Taxus cuspidata 'Nana Aurescens'

New growth on this low-growing, Japanese Yew bursts on the scene in a splash of brilliant goldenrod. Since second-year foliage goes dark green, each year's new growth makes another dramatic splash of color when it emerges.

The attractive dark green foliage retains its color in the coldest of winters. Has a spreading growth habit & reaches roughly 2’ to 3’ tall by 8’ to 10’ wide.

 

Taxus x media ‘Hicksii’

Taxus x media ‘Huber’s Tawny Gold’

Has a spreading growth habit & reaches roughly 3’ to 4’ tall by 4’ to 6’ wide.

 

Taxus x media ‘Repandens’

An exceptionally handsome evergreen conifer for sun or shade. It is low growing, with arching branches that droop at their tips. This spreading habit makes it ideal as a medium-sized ground cover. Like other yews, it takes pruning well, even into old wood. However, its lovely form develops best when it is given enough room to spread and is left unpruned. spreading English yew has very dark green needles year-round and is one of the few conifers that thrives in shade. Has a spreading growth habit & reaches roughly 2’ tall by 6’ wide, growing 6” to 8” a year.
