‘Prostrata’ is the lowest growing form of Japanese plum yew. It has a slightly longer needle than other C. harringtonia cultivars which gves it a “ferny appearance when planted in shady locations. This yew is nearly a groundcover.
Best grown in moist, well-drained soils in shady areas of the landscape. Tolerates shady conditions better than most needled evergreens. Tolerates full sun in cool summers, but prefers part shade conditions in areas with hot summers. Plants have good heat tolerance. Established plants tolerate some drought. Plants are not reliably winter hardy throughout USDA Zone 5 where they should be planted in protected locations. (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden Plant Finder)
