Yew (Taxus baccata)

Yew foliage is very poisonous to livestock, but birds and small mammals love the berries and the trees - or hedging - as a habitat. It doesn't seem to be grown much now as a specimen tree; when looking for a yew people tend to go more for the Irish variety, with its more fastigiate and tidy habit. Yew is an easy tree to grow, forgiving of even the most shady conditions and soils if not wet, although best results for a formal hedge will come if the soil is well prepared. Found naturally, it's most often associated with limestone or chalk soils. Yew grows at half the rate of other native trees, which can be handy, and like the Ash can change sex from year to year.

History in Britain

The Yew is the most ancient of British trees. Specimens in Wales have been dated back to 4,500 year old, and it has always occupied a unique part of our mythology and culture. Its strange regenerative powers are still not understood, and it can bleed mysteriously. Yew's association with burial sites is pre-Christian, and its tough wood used from time immemorial, most famously for long-bows, for which use it was often planted. Yew woods from all over Europe were decimated to meet the English's insatiable demand for bow staves in the Middle Ages. Yew wood was used for bows from the Neolithic, but also, later, for wine barrels and ship masts; it resists the action of water very well.

Plants For Sale

We're currently offering good sized 2 litre containerised Yew plants, which are up to 60cm tall. 

Like all the native trees we sell, our Yews are grown in the UK from UK origin seed.

Suppliers: RV Roger, British Hardwood Trees.

See our planting and size guide for details and tips on planting. Our Yew trees are available for delivery from November until March. During the lifting season there may be up to a month's delay between placing the order and dispatching, due to weather conditions or pressure of orders, which are dealt with in date sequence. Orders for Yews placed between March and September are confirmed in October ready for dispatch from November.

Have a look at our videos on what to do when your plants arrive and how to plant a bare root tree. Please ask about larger trees; we can often supply them but will need to quote on an individual basis as carriage varies so much.

Great for price
Color: Black, Size: 6FT
Worked great in the predrilled spaces in retail environment on counters. Had to do minor shaving of the existing holes but worked great after that. Only took 3 mins to correct. Well hidden and flush with counter.

Worthless
Color: Black, Size: 6FT
Would leave 0 stars if possible. Things thing f****** suck! Don’t buy them, don’t listen to the positive reviews. Don’t waste your money! They don’t work. Charging ports shut off after you unplug your device. Have to unplug and replug in charging cables and ac plugs everytime you want to use them or else they won’t work. Cheap unreliable product that matches the cheap price. Spend $5 more and get a product that actually works!!!!

Perfect for behind the sofa tables.
Color: Black, Size: 6FT, Color: Black, Size: 6FT
Bought 2 for behind the sofa table. We now have a multifunctional table with charging ports and electrical sockets. The couch blocked the outlets, and now we are set. Basically, it's not only for desktop use....be creative :) The pic shows holes cut in the table for easy insertion.

Amazing. A bit of a job to set it up but worth it!
Color: Black, Color: Black
Excellent quality. Sturdy and strong. The screws that come with it are awful. Get yourself some different ones. Takes a while to set it up and get it all measured. I did it while I was setting up my new Flexi-spot E7 Plus standing desk. Wanted to get it all done at the same time. At first. I thought it might be overkill, but I am sooooo glad I did get this. Now my computer moves along with the desk. It looks great. I bet it has improved the air flow around my computer as well. Looks sleek and cool. I might have set it a bit too tight around my case and as a result I have to shimmy it to get it out of the holder if I have to do any work on the computers internals. But at least I know it's secure. My suggestion would be to leave a little bit of slack to avoid this in your setup. Maybe like a 1/4 inch would be ok. The pads should hold it in place anyway. May loosen mine up if I find the time. But it feels totally secure on the desk with no wobble or shaking. Great product. Also I'm a woman in my late fifties 😃and I was able to set it all up on my own. So don't be intimidated ladies, you can do it too. I also bought two of the ultimate set up cable management trays. Great products. Note for anyone from the Ultimate Setup company who might read this. Please provide better quality wood screws and some extra ones) I stripped three of the cheap ones that came with this. And it took forever to drill them in because they weren't strong enough. Then it would be perfect.
