Irish Yew is either a tree or shrub depending upon the size that it is kept. It is a terrific hedge plant and can make a bold vertical statement as well. This is a highly combustible plant.

Planting: 1. Dig a hole 1" less the depth and 2 times the width of the container. 2. Fill hole with water, let soak. 3. Set root ball in hole. 4. Fill hole halfway with native soil and water. 5. Finish back filling hole, build basin and water.
