Creeping Japanese Plum Yew is a slow-growing evergreen conifer shrub with a spreading habit. It’s long needle-like foliage emerges lime green in spring and matures to a dark green it holds through winter. If the edible fruits are desired, both a female plant and male pollinator are required. Prefers partial sun and rich well-drained soils. Drought tolerant once established.
