Product Description

Bare Root Yew Hedging Plant, supplied size: 40-60cm, 18″-2′, bare root transplants

Yew is a very long lived species, visit any country estate and you will probably find yew hedging of many hundreds of years old. It is very suited to either very formal, square edged hedges or if you want to do something a little wacky it can be shaped into just about anything your imagination can provide.

Yew is regarded as a slow growing species but this is not strictly true, it will make a hedge reasonably quickly. As an exception to the rule you should leave yew to grow until it reaches the height of hedge you desire before cutting the top off. If the plants start to get too wide, trim the sides and this will help to further increase upwards growth.

Save yourself some money and buy yew between November and March as a bare root transplant.
