The Hicks Yew is a dense, upright evergreen that can be used both in hedges and privacy screen or as a formal accent to entry ways and garden paths. Does well in shade where other evergreens struggle.
Provide evenly moist, well-drained soil with protection from harsh, drying winds. Water deeply, regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system; reduce frequency, once established. Fertilize before new growth begins in spring. For a tidy, neat appearance, prune annually to shape.Pruning time: summer.
