English Yew Hedging
A classic native evergreen hedge with fine, dark green foliage, exceptional longevity and a naturally elegant appearance for formal boundaries and year-round screening.
Taxus baccata, commonly known as English Yew, is one of the finest plants for creating high-quality evergreen hedging. Its dense growth and fine, dark green foliage create a refined backdrop that works particularly well in formal, traditional and contemporary gardens.
Yew responds exceptionally well to clipping and can be maintained as a crisp formal hedge or developed into a taller screen. Although slower growing than Laurel or Privet, its longevity, versatility and ability to regenerate from old wood make it an outstanding long-term hedging choice.
Why Choose Taxus baccata?
Evergreen for year-round structure and screening
Dense, fine-textured dark green foliage
Excellent for formal hedging and topiary
Responds exceptionally well to regular clipping
Can regenerate from older wood
Long-lived and extremely durable
Tolerant of sun and shade
UK native with excellent wildlife value
Why Buy Rootballed Yew?
Rootballed Taxus baccata is field-grown and lifted with a substantial ball of soil retained around its root system.
This allows larger, established Yew plants to be supplied economically and is particularly useful where a more substantial hedge and greater initial presence are required.
Available Sizes
Rootballed Yew is available in a range of heights, subject to seasonal nursery availability.
Larger specimens can create considerable structure from the outset, while smaller plants offer an economical option for longer hedge runs.
How Many Plants Do I Need?
Plant spacing depends upon the size selected and the density of hedge you would like to create.
Our hedging guide will help you calculate the appropriate number of plants for the length of your proposed hedge.

We can supply rootballed Taxus baccata for customers undertaking their own planting or provide a complete professional supply and planting service.

Important – Rootballed Plants Are Seasonal

For larger quantities or particular sizes, early ordering is recommended.
Delivery, Access & Planting
