Description
Taxus baccata — English Yew — is the sort of hedge that assumes it will still be here long after most decisions have been forgotten. Dense and dark green, an English yew hedge brings a sense of authority and calm to garden boundaries.
English yew hedging is prized for its ability to form exceptionally neat, formal hedges that provide year-round privacy. The evergreen foliage responds beautifully to regular trimming, allowing it to be shaped with real precision. Slow-growing but remarkably long lived, English yew hedge plants reward patience with a boundary that feels considered, permanent and quietly impressive.

How will my hedge arrive?
All our Hedging is supplied with a rootball wrapped in hessian as standard. Container grown options are also available out of season or upon request. We’ll be happy to discuss the best format for your needs before finalising your order.
Growing & Care
English yew grows best in well-drained soil and is unusually tolerant of both sun and shade – a rare talent, and one of the reasons it has been trusted in gardens for centuries. During establishment, regular watering helps the hedge settle in properly. Once established, yew is self-contained, requiring little more than routine trimming to maintain its shape. It clips cleanly and predictably, making it ideal for those who appreciate order.
Common Uses
Yew hedging is widely used for formal garden boundaries, privacy screening and architectural planting. Its dense evergreen foliage makes it particularly valuable where year-round cover is essential. Whether lining a drive, enclosing a garden room or defining a formal layout, a yew hedge brings structure without ever feeling overbearing.
