Beanpole Columnar Yew (Taxus Media) – 1 Gallon Pot

If there ever was a plant that could put an exclamation point in the landscape it’s the Beanpole Yew, a distinct and refined hybrid that forms a narrow column a mere 12 inches wide and 6 to 10 feet tall depending on pruning. Beanpole features very attractive, soft-textured foliage with slender, dark green needle-like leaves. Easy to grow and versatile, Beanpole is a fine textural accent plant for filling narrow spaces in sunny or fully shaded home foundation plantings and other landscape spaces. Also nice as a centerpiece in container gardens. In hot summer climates we suggest some shade during the afternoon hours.

Taxus x media is a hybrid designation for a number of crosses of English yew (Taxus baccata) and Japanese yew (Taxus cuspidata). These hybrids are noted for combining the ornamental excellence of English yew with the winter hardiness of Japanese yew.
