    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    This fastigiate & congested-leaved version of English Yew is perhaps a better plant for a modern small garden. Dark green leaves are an excellent backdrop for many other lighter leaved plants. Fine in a formal situation or container. Full to part sun with normal water. Slow growing, to a very narrow 10' in a fair time.
