Boxwood - Fastigata
The Boxwood Fastigiata, Buxus s. 'Fastigiata', has an upright habit and oval, glossy-green leaves which makes this shrub an excellent choice for a narrow hedge or exclamation point in the small garden; height may be controlled by prunining. It is best grown in average, medium moisture, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Prefers moist, sandy loams. Boxwood fills in the gap in ornamentals with its many easily sculpted forms. They provide everything from topiary, pyramid, globe, and spiral shapes to hedges and Bonsai uses. Fastigata is a slow grower that requires little special care other than annual pruning. This boxwood looks wonderful when planted in mass, or used as a specimen or accent.

Plant as an accent shrub or in mass plantings. (May be too bright for use as a hedge due to the intense bright yellow color if planted in full sun.)

It typically matures to a height of 18' to 20' with a spread of 6' to 10' wide after 20 years; very narrow when young and widening with age. Yews are classified as conifers, but female plants (yews are dioecious) produce red, fleshy, single-seeded fruit instead of cones. Easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soils of neutral pH in full sun to part shade. Hicks Yew tolerates a wide range of soils as long as drainage is good. Also tolerant of full shade and considerable pruning, but intolerant of temperature extremes. Use as a specimen, screen, hedge or foundation plant.
