Taxus baccata, commonly known as the English Yew, is a slow-growing, evergreen conifer that has been a symbol of longevity and resilience for centuries. Native to Europe, North Africa, and western Asia, this species is known for its rich green needles, red berry-like arils, and striking, gnarled trunks.
Yews are highly adaptable and can thrive in a variety of conditions, from shady woodland areas to sunny garden corners. They are perfect for creating hedges, topiaries, or specimen trees. Taxus baccata is also known for its resistance to disease and pests, making it a reliable and low-maintenance choice for gardeners.
Taxus baccata seeds require a period of cold stratification before they can germinate. Place the seeds in a moist, cool environment (around 4°C or 40°F) for several weeks to break dormancy. After stratification, sow the seeds in well-draining soil and keep them moist. Patience is key, as Yews grow slowly but steadily.
