Spreading Plum Yew

Spreading Plum Yew is an evergreen shrub valued for its deep green, strap-like needles that create a soft, layered look. The arching branches form a wide, flowing shape, adding depth and structure to shaded planting areas. Its low, spreading habit allows it to cover space evenly while maintaining a natural, relaxed appearance. Reaching about 2 to 3 feet tall and spreading 4 to 6 feet wide at maturity, it develops a broad, textural presence that works well in shade plantings, borders, and as a groundcover.
