28 : THE TINGLE NURSERY Co. 
TAXUS (Yew) 
It is only in the past few years that nurserymen in the United States 
have begun to really appreciate and grow the Yew. In England there 
are Yews more than a hundred years old, but unfortunately the English 
Yew (Taxus baccata) is not reliably hardy in the north, and many do not 
realize that the Japanese, and many forms of Media, are perfectly hardy 
in and around Boston, and the Japanese even in northern New England. 
They are not so particular as to character of soil except that it should 
not be too wet, but they do appreciate plenty of good plant food. They 
are immune to many insect pests and plant diseases so destructive to 
many other evergreens. 
The Yew in its many species and forms can well be used in most all 
places where any other evergreen will do well. 
We honestly believe you will do well to plant and grow on some of 
these Yews.
