YEW (Taxus) 
The Yew or (Taxus) are beyond question among the very best in evergreens. They are 
disease free and hardy and will stand as much abuse as any evergreen. They are also indispensible 
for shady plantings. The foliage is heavy, waxy and rugged. All Yews bear scarlet berries in 
the summer. 
AMERICAN YEW (Taxus Can- 
adensis)—A native of Canada, 
hardy anywhere. A dwarf spread- 
ing shrub with dark green, glossy 
needles. We recommend this ever- 
green for spots too shady for grass 
and other shrubbery. Habit iden- 
tical to the spreading Japanese 
Yew (See cut). Needles and 
branches, however, are lighter 
and winter color not as good as 
Japanese Yew. 15-18’ $2.00; 18- 
24” $2.50. 
JAPANESE YEW (Taxus Cuspi- 
data)—Half upright and irregular 
in habit, clothed with waxy black 
green needles. The Japanese Yew 
is one of the most useful evergreens 
for any planting. We recommend 
this very highly for shady locations 
where other trees will not grow. 
It also does equally as well in sun. 
We have both spreaders and 
upright trees in this variety.
