FAQs
- Is it good for privacy? Yes, Taxus baccata’s dense branching provides year-round screening.
- How does care compare? Easier than many conifers—requires only annual trim and adapts to partial shade.
- Why choose pot grown? Pot grown plants establish faster, can be planted year-round (excluding frozen soil).
- When can I plant? Yew can be planted in any season provided ground isn’t frozen or waterlogged.
- Are yews pet/kid safe? Not suitable for unsupervised gardens—berries and foliage are toxic if eaten.
Common questions
Bare root plants are field-grown and lifted dormant — the cheapest way to plant a hedge. Pot grown plants have an established root system and can be planted year-round. Root ball plants are mature field-grown plants lifted with a soil ball for instant height.
Pot grown plants can go in the ground at any time of year. Bare root is supplied dormant from November to March, and root ball plants are lifted in that same window.
3 plants per metre for a standard single-row hedge, or 5 per metre (staggered double row) for a dense screen.
