Taxus cuspidata nana (Dwarf Japanese Yew) 
TAXUS • The Yew 
Without question, the Yew (Taxus) in its various forms is the out¬ 
standing evergreen for use on the home-grounds and in general landscap¬ 
ing, for its dark green, rich-textured foliage is always fresh-looking 
and attractive. It is extremely hardy, not affected by cold or heat, and 
will grow in shade as well as sun. A slow grower and lends itself well to 
shearing. There are forms for various uses which are described below.
