Description

Yew is an English native tree with dense, dark foliage and forms superb, dense hedges from 1m to 3m or more, providing excellent screening, almost total shelter from wind and weather and excellent privacy.

An evergreen conifer that is easy to manage, it grows at 20-30cm a year, quicker than many people think and once its desired height is reached, it's easy to maintain.

Yew responds well to frequent trimming, but also, if you're short on time, it can also be cut just once a year in late summer.

Densely growing, yew is very easy to grow, shade tolerant, very hardy, and will grow in most soils apart from heavy clay. With bright green growth in spring and bright red autumn berries (which are very attractive to wild birds), Yew will also provide texture and fresh colour in your garden, especially in winter.

Although plants can grow very large (they are trees after all), by planting them close and clipping every year, you can maintain them at a very respectable height.

Supplied as 10 x established plants in 9cm pots, ready to be planted out straight away.

Top Tips

Potted plants can be planted any time of the year, at 4 plants per liner Metre of hedge. Do not trim for 2 years after planting.

Care Information
  • To plant, space plants approx 20-30cm (3/4-1ft).
  • Water your plants well and dig a hole a little deeper and 3 x wider than the nursery pot.
  • Add a soil conditioner such as well rotted manure to the earth removed from the hole if necessary to lighten heavy, poor soil.
  • Remove the plant from its pot and tease out a few of the roots.
  • Place your plant in the hole at the same level at the pot then refill the hole with the earth removed (backfilling).
  • Firm in the soil with your heel, avoiding the root ball.
  • Water well and mulch around the base of the plant with a collar, compost, gravel, bark etc - Yew needs plenty of water in the first couple of seasons but should not sit in waterlogged soil.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
