Taxus b. 'Fastigiata Aurea'

GOLDEN IRISH YEW
ABOUT THIS PRODUCT

A compact, upright evergreen shrub with a narrow, columnar habit, this plant is highly valued for its striking golden-yellow foliage that persists year-round. Recommended for USDA hardiness zones 5-8, it thrives in well-drained, slightly acidic soils and prefers partial to full sun conditions. This slow-growing plant reaches a mature height of 6-10 feet and a spread of 2-4 feet. While it does not produce notable flowers, its vibrant foliage provides year-round interest, and its dense form makes it an excellent choice for hedges, screens, or vertical accents. It has no notable fall color but may produce small, red, berry-like fruits that are highly attractive but toxic to humans when consumed. This plant is moderately deer-resistant and tolerates pruning, allowing for easy maintenance in the landscape.
