Roman Candle™ Podocarpus Yew

Roman Candle Podocarpus Yew is a variegated evergreen shrub that has white to light green new growth. This podocarpus is a tough shrub in a low maintenance package, it offers disease, pest and deer resistance and tolerates full sun and heat. At 10-15 feet high at maturity and 3-4′ wide, it sports an upright habit that can be used for a number of landscape applications. The soft color palette allows you to create foundation hedge lines or privacy screens that you can build on with any variety of color combinations or textures. Space them 3 feet apart for a dense hedge or space them 5+ feet apart to create individual columns of textured growth. They are evergreen shrubs, so you will get a dense habit year around. This bush is hardy in USDA Zones 7-10, making them viable for most of the country.
