This low-growing evergreen shrub showcases a wide-spreading, mounded habit with gracefully arching branches. Hardy in Zones 4-7, it thrives in well-drained soils and adapts well to both full sun and partial shade. Its dense, dark green foliage maintains its vibrant color year-round, providing a rich backdrop for any garden design. While it does not feature notable fall color or flowers, it may produce small, fleshy, red arils, adding seasonal interest. This yew is highly deer-resistant and suitable for foundation plantings, borders, or as ground cover. Reaching a mature height of 2-3 feet and spreading 6-8 feet wide, it is a tidy and manageable addition to formal and informal landscape settings.
