TAXUS . The Yews 
The Yews never disappoint us. Their sterling character persists through thick and 
thin. They will carry on under extremely adverse conditions and respond gratefully to 
attention and care. The variation in form and habit of growth is astonishing, and yet, 
be it the prostrate rosette of the spreading English Yew or the close-folded erectness of 
the Irish Yew, it is unmistakably Yew.
