Very nice yew Walter, thanks for sharing.Here is one of my European yews. The first image is of 2011. It looks challenging, better than your yew, but certainly much more expensive even at this state. What can we learn from this? Look at the last image as of spring 2017. This is five and a half years later. With yews one can do it. Just let grow, let outgrow the intended shape and then when you think it is now really too outgrown cut back ruthlessly. It's called the hedging method. Some her frown upon it. Well, show me your results after five years. Any method can only be judged by proven results and not by what your guru thinks of it.
