Yews

Yews

These plants will kick the patience out of you since yews grow very slowly, but they do live extremely long lives and make great blank canvases for topiaries with dense foliage. At Mckay Nursery, we provide a wide selection of captivating yew tree options for your landscaping project.

The Birth of the Yew Hedge

The English yew, or the common yew, was traditionally used to shelter herbaceous borders or as a background for statuary and garden ornaments. With its green tones and accents of bright red berries, yew hedges make a versatile addition to your garden.

Yews can grow to heights of up to 65 feet, providing full shade from the sun. With different textures from various yew types, planting these yew hedges on your property will surely be a captivating addition that bolsters its curb appeal.

Varied Yew Trees to Choose from

At Mckay Nursery, we want to give you all the options you need to diversify your landscaping project. We host a wide range of yew trees, including Taunton yews, Dark green spreader yews, and more.

These low-maintenance plants from the yew family can become towering installations, like with Texas Hicks yews, or provide a short but effective accent, like with Dwarf yews. Research the wide range of other yews (e.g., English yew, Japanese plum yew, Densiformis yew, Pacific yew, etc.) to find which one can complement your property best!
