Capitata Japanese Yew - Taxus cuspidata 'Capitata Aurea'
The Capitata Japanese Yew (Taxus cuspidata 'Capitata Aurea') is a pyramidal evergreen for landscapes and gardens. This is a gold leafed variety of the parent species with golden needle tips and new growth. Young plants require direct watering as rain and irrigation can shed off the outer shell leaving the root ball dry. The species as a whole is sensitive to overwatering. This is a cultivated variety of Taxus cuspidata 'Capitata'. Photos of the parent variety may help in identification.
