General Information
Taunton Yew grows moderately fast, and has lovely spreading form. Its upright, arching branches of dark green needles show just a hint of gold. It shows good resistance to winter burn and damage from summer heat. Much more tolerant of extreme weather than other yews. The finely textured foliage of this multi-stemmed shrub makes a great choice for a specimen or accent plant. Great planted in mass for a hedge. Red berries provide extra interest. Attractive in a woodland garden. Use as a foundation planting for good year round interest.

We treat your plant
like it's ours
- Before your plant leaves our greenhouse, it’s wrapped and supported to handle the journey ahead. Pots are sealed to prevent spills, plants are gently netted and staked for stability, and boxes are packed with biodegradable peanuts to absorb movement along the way. Thoughtful packaging helps your plant arrive happy, healthy, and ready to grow.
When your plant
arrives
- Plants may show signs of stress after shipping, such as bent stems or drooping leaves. This is normal. Prompt unpacking, proper watering, and a short recovery period in the shade help plants rebound quickly. Avoid heavy pruning and give your plant time to adjust as it establishes in your landscape.
