    This yew is golden, especially in winter and will add some bright color during the cold season.

    New growth emerges, as the name implies, bright gold colored in the spring. Color greens out a little during the summer, particularly if they are in too much shade, but still stays quite nice. Fairly compact, reaching maybe 3 feet tall and wide in ten years. Zone 4
