Upright Japanese Plum Yew

Cephalotaxus harringtonia 'Fastigiata'

Upright Japanese Plum Yew is an elegant evergreen shrub with a naturally narrow, columnar form and soft, dark green needles that provide year-round beauty. Unlike many conifers, its rich foliage has a graceful, feathery texture that brings a refined look to the landscape. Exceptionally shade tolerant, this versatile evergreen is ideal for privacy screens, foundation plantings, woodland gardens, and vertical accents where space is limited.

Highly adaptable and easy to maintain, Upright Japanese Plum Yew thrives in well-drained soils and tolerates heat, humidity, and urban conditions once established. Its dense habit and low-maintenance nature make it an excellent alternative to upright hollies or arborvitae in partially shaded landscapes.
