Hicks Yew (Taxus x media 'Hicksii') is a columnar evergreen shrub known for its dense, vertical growth and refined appearance. With soft, flat dark green needles and a naturally upright form, it’s ideal for creating privacy screens, formal hedges, or vertical accents in tight spaces. Hicks Yew is highly shade-tolerant and adaptable to pruning, making it a great choice for structured designs. It thrives in well-drained soil and performs best in part shade, though it can tolerate some sun. A classic, low-maintenance evergreen with year-round appeal.
