Upright Japanese Yew

Taxus cuspidata 'Capitata' is a vigorous form of Japanese yew, naturally pyramidal and dense in habit, which over time forms a structured and evergreen silhouette ideal for planting in hedges, as a specimen, or as an all-season privacy screen. Its dark matte green foliage, composed of soft, fine needles, remains decorative all year round. Very hardy, tolerant of pruning, urban pollution, and varied conditions, this yew also tolerates partial shade. It can be allowed to grow freely or pruned as needed, offering a flexible and elegant solution for classic or contemporary landscaping. 'Capitata' combines structural presence, adaptability, and dense foliage, perfect for versatile and lasting use in the garden.
