HILL EVERGREENS 
Spreading Japanese Yew 
Japanese Yew—Spreading Type 
This is the low-branched, many-stemmed form of 
the Japanese Yew, usually grown from cuttings. 
There is some variation among the types of spread¬ 
ing Yews, but all of them usually grow more broad 
than tall, branching out from the bottom with numer¬ 
ous stems in a semi-upright growth. This accounts 
for their use as hedge trees, for small borders and 
edging, and in confined areas such as foundation 
plantings. While Yews will withstand considerable 
shade, they will also thrive in the open sun. The 
growth is rapid where the trees have favorable grow¬ 
ing conditions. They are heavy feeders and require 
fertilizing to make their best development.

A Special Booklet on 
The Japanese Yews 
has been published by the D. Hill Nursery 
Company and will be mailed to any one inter¬ 
ested, on request. This booklet contains illus¬ 
trations of all the well known varieties of Yews 
and valuable cultural information. The Hill 
Nursery is striving to build up a large stock of 
various Yews, as it is our belief that in the 
future these trees will become the most highly 
regarded of all the ornamental Evergreens.
