Description
Taxus 'Baccata'
The Taxus 'Baccata', also known as the Yew, is a highly prized conifer known for its dense, dark green foliage and classic conical silhouette. It is an excellent choice for both formal and informal garden designs and provides interest and structure year-round.
The supplied plants have a height of 80 to 100 cm, excluding the pot, and are ideal for creating a hedge of 10 meters. We recommend planting 2 plants per meter with a spacing of approximately 20 cm. The plants are offered in a pot with a diameter of 30 cm and a capacity of 12 liters and are pot-grown, which benefits the quality and stability of the plants.
