Taxus cuspidata capitata. Upright Japanese Yew. 
Beyond doubt this is the most valuable evergreen 
tree for North American gardens. It is perfectly 
hardy, and the rich, dark evergreen foliage 
remains in good condition throughout the entire 
year. It grows rapidly when young and can be 
clipped to almost any form, eventually developing 
a soft velvety surface backed with a wall-like 
solidity. The smaller sizes are especially useful 
for making hedges, but the upright, conical habit 
of this variety gives it special value for striking 
ornamental specimens. Each 10 100
