The Cephalotaxus harringtonia 'Fastigiata', commonly known as the Upright Japanese Plum Yew, is a versatile and hardy evergreen shrub. It features a narrow, columnar form with dark green, needle-like foliage. This plant is appreciated for its ability to thrive in shaded areas where other evergreens may struggle.
This plant is ideal for use as a vertical accent in gardens, as a hedge, or in shaded borders. It can also be used in containers and is suitable for urban gardens due to its tolerance of pollution and shade.
