The yew is not very demanding in terms of location. She gets along well with almost all situations. The soil condition is more important. How to find a good location for your yew tree.

A good location for the yew
Yews grow in partial shade, in the sun and even in the shade. However, growth is severely delayed in very shady locations.
As long as the yew is young, it does not tolerate direct sunlight in summer or winter very well. The needles then quickly turn yellow. Therefore, provide shade for the first few years.
Permeable soil is important!
Yews do not tolerate waterlogging. It is therefore important that the soil is well drained. If necessary, create a drainage.
tips
The yew does not like long periods of drought. Water yew trees and yew hedges regularly during dry periods, even in winter.
