Taxus, also known as Yew trees, are evergreen conifers that have dense habits and maintain a compact form. Taxus make perfect low-maintenance architectural shrubs and are great for adding colour to your garden all year round. The cones of taxus add great interest as they are surrounded by bright red outer casings called arils and they really stand out against the leaves.
