Hi guys, I would like to plant just one Irish Yew (taxus baccata ‘fastigiata’) in my urban wildlife garden. I don’t have a huge amount of space but keep reading, that yew can be easily pruned and kept in check. Is this true? Also, I only have space for one plant. English Yew, for example, needs a companion in order to produce berries. Is this still the case with Irish Yew, or is one plant enough (will I still get berries with only one specimen)? Lastly, does she have an extensive root system, as I have shrub roses and other plants growing nearby? Thanks.
