The 2 clumps of Taxus featured in this thread were from the same hedge row and were acquired for free in 2006. (Other Taxus from this same hedge: #1 here, #2 here, #3 here, #4 here)
The two clumps were combined on a rock slab with 2 other smaller single Taxus to create an 11-tree forest. The first picture below is the clump planted to the left on the slab and the 2nd & 3rd pictures below (with the largest trunk) are the clump on the right end of the slab. I left taller sacrifice tops on 2 of the trunks to build vigor before I chop back to build the apex of each tree. (A virtual to follow next post.)
All 11 trees combined. "Ale 8" bottle for scale
