Taxus x media 'Skinny'
This ultra-narrow evergreen takes up just 1 foot of ground space but delivers big impact. It grows tall and columnar, with dense, dark green foliage that stays vibrant all year—and pops with bright green new growth in spring. Perfect for tight spaces, hedges, or stylish vertical accents.
Super space-saving, narrow shape
Rich green year-round color
Grows in sun or shade
Great winter interest
Uses:
Its super-skinny habit makes it perfect for space-saving hedges, formal entryway accents, or even containers.
Care tips:
Naturally upright and tidy—no regular pruning needed. You can selectively trim branches if desired. Just keep in mind, it's not deer resistant and may get damaged in areas with heavy deer activity.
