Spreading Yew
A spreading Evergreen that has short dark green needles and is very hardy. With a low, graceful, and lovely form, tolerant of summer heat, and excellent resistance to winter burn. It grows well in both sun and shade and is very popular as an accent, specimen, or foundation plant. Remove 1/2 to 3/4 of the new growth each year with hand pruners; you can control the size and maintain a healthier shrub with a more natural form.
