Hill’s Yew (Taxus × media ‘Hillii’) is a dense, upright evergreen ideal for privacy hedges, property lines, screening and formal landscapes. Its rich dark green foliage provides year-round structure and responds very well to pruning, making it easy to maintain as a neat, uniform hedge.

Unlike Hicks Yew, Hill’s Yew does not produce red berries, making it a great choice for customers who prefer a clean, all-green evergreen hedge.

Key Features

  • Dense, upright evergreen growth
  • Excellent for privacy hedges and screening
  • No red berries
  • Tolerates pruning and shaping
  • Full sun to partial shade
  • Cold hardy for Southern Ontario
  • Delivery and professional planting available

Planting & Spacing

For a dense privacy hedge, Hill’s Yew is commonly planted about 2 ft apart, depending on the starting size and how quickly you want the hedge to fill in. It can grow well in full sun to partial shade and is a strong choice for shaded or narrow property lines.

Hill’s Yew vs Hicks Yew
