Why Choose a Yew Cone?

• Evergreen Structure All Year Round – Rich, dark green needle-like leaves create a sculptural focal point that doesn’t fade with the seasons.

• Elegant Formal Shape – The tight conical form is ideal for traditional gardens, driveways, flanking pathways, or in large pots by doorways.

• Extremely Hardy & Long-Lived – Native to the UK and well-suited to our climate, Yew thrives in a variety of conditions and can live for centuries.

• Low Maintenance Topiary – Requires just a few trims per year to maintain its form and responds well to hard pruning.

• Versatile Planting Options – Suitable for formal borders, topiary avenues, or as a specimen in pots. Can be planted in sun or partial shade and is happy in most well-drained soils.

Planting & Aftercare

• Location: Full sun to partial shade.

• Soil: Well-drained soil; avoid waterlogged sites.

• Watering: Keep well-watered during the first growing season to establish strong roots. Especially important if planted in summer or during dry spells.

• Feeding: Apply a slow-release fertiliser in spring to encourage lush new growth.

• Pruning: Trim in early to mid-summer to maintain the tight cone shape.

This Yew Cone is perfect for adding year-round structure and a touch of timeless British formality to gardens of all sizes. Whether used in pairs, groups, or as a standalone feature, it’s a topiary investment that will reward for decades.
