TAXUS 
TALL NARROW HARDY 
For many years the nursery trade has been looking for a 
hardy yew that is narrow and compact yet having a norma! 
rate of growth. They are sorely needed for confined plant- 
ings, formal hedges and gardens, apartment house and _ store 
plantings, and a score of other uses where juniper, thuja, etc. 
are not practical or wanted. With these ends in mind 30 Taxus 
media seedlings were chosen in 1932 for testing. In 1946 after 
14 years of discarding and testing for hardness, growth habit, 
color, freeness of disease, propagation ease, sales appeal, etc. 
four types were offered to the trade and in 1947 three others— 
all in small sizes. This year we offer some larger sizes and soon 
will have B & B. Every-one who has seen our stock plants has 
commented very favorably on them. Everything points to a 
future public demand. 
TAXUS MEDIA PILARIS—Pillar Yew a 
Narrow habit about mid-way between Pyramidalis and 
Sentinalis. Needles are gracefully long and narrow and 
medium dark. Branches slope upward and are short. 
TAXUS MEDIA GRANDIFOLIA—Bigleaf Yew a 
Similar in shape and growth to Pilaris but with very much 
longer needles. The effect is rich and unusual. 
TAXUS MEDIA PYRAMIDALIS—Pyramidal Yew a, b, c, d 
A strong grower with verticle branches and striking black- 
green needles. Truly a rich, showy, fullbushed column. 
TAXUS MEDIA ROBUSTA—Obelisk Yew ane DyEc mic ae 
Similar to pyramidalis in growth but heavier branched, giving 
a more sturdy or robust appearance. Large glossy needles. 
TAXUS MEDIA SENTINALIS—Sentinel Yew Sold out 
The most surprising of all. Sufficiently clothed with short 
foliage and branches to cover the main stem. 
TAXUS MEDIA STRICTA—Narrowbush Yew Aly layatey, (a) 
Narrow and a bit dwarfish which along with short thin needles 
give a compact effect. Branches almost verticle. 
TAXUS MEDIA VERIDIS—Grassgreen Yew Ty Aap, ey te! 
Long, gay bright needles both Winter and Summer. A faster 
grower than the rest with almost verticle branches. We think 
it is one of the best. See page 4 for Rooted Cuttings.
