Taxus/Yew
« on: December 02, 2016, 11:40:40 AM »
I've been trying to track down some of the less common yew cultivars, particularly the dwarf/slow growing ones. I have exhausted the Plantfinder and Esveld in The Netherlands, and wondered if anyone knew of any other reliable European sources that did mail order?
Thankyou
Giles

..been there, and done that, Ralph, I'm afraid.
The 'Klitzeklein' is highly recommended, as is 'Green Diamond' which is also available in the UK.
