About this plant

‘Fastigiata Robusta’ Irish yew has deep green needles that remain on the plant throughout the year.

It grows into a dense, slender column, making a neat vertical accent in the garden.

Best used for

Use as a pair at an entrance, a vertical accent or a slow-growing evergreen screen.

Give the plant enough space and light to show its natural form.

Growth & mature size

Growth per year 10–20 cm per year Slow growth
Expected mature size 4–6 m high / 1–2 m wide

Expect around 10–20 cm of new growth per year after establishment in good conditions. At maturity it typically reaches 4–6 m in height and 1–2 m in width. Allow room for a very narrow, upright column; soil, water, exposure and pruning all influence its final outline.

How to care

Plant in well-drained soil and avoid waterlogged ground. Water deeply through the first growing seasons and during prolonged dry spells later on. Apply mature compost or a slow-release evergreen fertiliser once in spring if soil is poor. Clip in late summer if a formal outline is wanted; established yew tolerates careful renovation.
