Taxus baccata 'Repandens'
English yew
The branches of this low-growing yew are long and splaying, which makes it ideal for creating tall groundcover. Easy and undemanding, it's tolerant of dry shade, so it's particularly useful for underplanting established trees and shrubs where little else will grow. 'Repandens' will make an excellent, evergreen, low and formally clipped hedge or clipped edging plant tolerant of a range of soil conditions.
