    Brilliant yellowish-white needles on this columnar yew. A slow-growing that goes great in just about every landscape. Also listed by some as 'White Icicle'

    A dwarf, yellow and white variety of English Yew. Very bright yellow leaves with white, a very tight columnar form, this evergreen conifer makes a nice accent plant for color, form, and texture! Prefers rich organic well-drained soil.
