Cultivars
Stonehenge Dark Druid
Taxus 'SMNTHDB'
Need a neat and tidy yew with outstanding color? Get Stonehenge Dark Druid Taxus ! Noted for its rich, dark green foliage and tight round habit, this yew is a useful and versatile low-mounded plant that can be used like boxwood. It has superb hardiness and winter coloration.
Stonehenge
Taxus 'SMNTHDC'
Think of Stonehenge® taxus as a thin, faster-growing 'Hicksii'. Perfect for hedging or foundation plantings where a narrow habit works best. This unique selection has been in our field trial for over five years and has never needed pruning, shearing, or shown signs of winter burn. It's narrow enough to be useful and interesting, dense enough to look good in a container, and fast enough to be profitable. Female selection will develop berry-like structures if a male is planted nearby.
Stonehenge Skinny
Taxus 'SMNTHDPF'
Similar to Stonehenge ® Taxus , but even skinnier. There's no pruning, shearing, and little to no spacing needed for this dense, dark green columnar yew. We've been watching this plant for over eight years, and it holds its dark color all year long and has never winter burned. It's useful as a super-skinny, space-saving hedge or as a specimen plant. It's the perfect alternative to columnar Japanese holly ( Ilex crenata ) like 'Sky Pencil', especially for those in cold climates! Stonehenge Skinny taxus is a female selection and will develop red berry-like structures if a male is planted nearby.
