Common name:Irish Yew
Botanical name:Taxus baccata 'Stricta'
Irish Yew is either a tree or shrub depending upon the size that it is kept. It is a terrific hedge plant and can make a bold vertical statement as well.
If you mulch heavily as recommended in the compost and mulch fact sheets you should not need traditional fertilization. Sustainable landscapes fertilize themselves as soil organisms break down and recycle the dropped leaves into nutrients.
