Yew (Taxus Baccata) Pack of 4 Cell Grown 1020cm
Our RHS Yew (Taxus Baccata) is a mediumsized evergreen hedge with narrow darkgreen leaves sometimes with fleshy red fruits. It is a dense dark native evergreen with bright red fruits attractive to birds in winter but harmful to humans pets and livestock. It is quite slow growing (1530cm) per year so once it reaches its desired height its easy to maintain. Yew needs plenty of water in the first couple of seasons (ideally a leaky pipe system) but should not sit in waterlogged soil. Apart from its requirement for water its very easy to grow shade tolerant very hardy and likes all soils particularly alkaline.
