Taxus cuspidata 'Rezek's Gold'Named and registered by the late master plantsman Ed Rezek, this Japanese yew has bright butter yellow new growth that becomes dark green as the season progresses, adding excellent contrast. The plant will only be 2 ft tall and wide in 10 years, so will fit into a small garden. This conifer looks and performs its best when exposed to morning sun and afternoon shade, planted in well drained soil. Hardy to zone 4.
