Zone: 4PYRAMIDAL JAPANESE YEW
Taxus cuspidata 'Capitata' is commonly referred to as Japanese Yew. It is a broad-columnar, pyramidal, slow-growing needled evergreen with rich, dark green foliage. Female plants may produce abundant berries that are attractive to birds and other wildlife.
The Japanese Yew is easy to grow and thrives in average, evenly moist, well-drained soils in full sun to partial shade. It can tolerate shady conditions, but not poor drainage. It tolerates pruning/shearing well and it is best done in early spring, although it can be any time of the year. Protection from cold, harsh winds is beneficial.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in fertile, well-draining soil, selecting a location that ranges from full sun to full shade. These versatile evergreens are highly adaptable but thrive best in sites with protection from harsh, drying winds and excessive moisture, as they are susceptible to root rot in waterlogged conditions. Provide consistent water during the first growing season to ensure deep root establishment.
Prune as needed in late spring or early summer to maintain your desired form or density, as these shrubs respond exceptionally well to shearing. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the root zone to conserve moisture and suppress weeds, taking care to keep the material a few inches away from the crown to prevent stem rot.
