EDDIE YEW 5-6ft

The Eddie Yew is a sophisticated, upright evergreen that brings a touch of classic structure to any landscape. This variety is prized for its slender, columnar habit, typically reaching 12 to 15 feet tall while staying only 3 to 4 feet wide—making it the perfect solution for tight side yards or elegant privacy screening. For gardeners in Zones 7 and 8, it is a remarkably adaptable choice that thrives in both sun and deep shade. While many evergreens struggle with wildlife, the Eddie Yew is notably deer-resistant, allowing its dark, emerald-green foliage to remain lush and full all year long.

To ensure your yew establishes a deep, healthy root system, blend Watters Premium Mulch with your garden's native soil at a 50/50 ratio during planting. This helps balance moisture levels, which is key for these hardy shrubs. To maintain that rich, dark color, feed it with 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food twice a year.
