Taxus baccata Fastigiata, commonly known as the Irish Yes, is a conifer grown for its attractive foliage and slender form. This evergreen has a rigid, upright branching habit which results in a tight columnar form. It typically grows to 4 m tall and 90 cm wide but can easily be kept to shorter heights. Taxus baccata Fastigata is commonly used to line or border an entrance, planted as a backdrop for smaller plants, grown as a screen, or planted as a hedge.
