Taxus baccata 'Semperaurea'
Taxus 'Semperaurea' is a superb golden form of the native Yew, valued for its dense evergreen foliage and naturally broad, bushy habit. Its bright golden-yellow needles provide year-round colour and develop attractive orange-bronze tones during winter, adding warmth and seasonal interest to the garden.
Slow growing and easy to maintain, this versatile Conifer forms a dense, compact shrub that responds exceptionally well to pruning. Its neat growth makes it ideal for hedging, screening and topiary, while the vibrant foliage provides an effective contrast in rockeries, mixed borders and formal planting schemes.
A holder of the RHS Award of Garden Merit, 'Semperaurea' is a reliable, hardy and long-lived garden plant. It thrives in sun or partial shade and adapts to most well-drained soils, providing dependable structure, colour and evergreen interest throughout the seasons.
