Can the spreading plum yew be planted in full sun in Alabama? I love this plant and the beautiful soft foliage but don't want to plant in sun if it needs mostly shade. Would appreciate any advice.

A wonderful foundation planting for the shade. Have had several on the north side of our house for 10 years. They stay healthy and beautiful. They do overgrow the measly 4' I allotted them, so I have to trim them back, but it's easy. When the new growth is on, it's a beautiful light green that looks great with yellow hostas like August Moon. Found them to be 100% deer resistant.

This plant has thrived in south Dayton. I have been growing it for over three years now and there has not ever been any winter damage in my zone, 6a. I suggest anyone in a similar zone to try growing this if one wants an exotic conifer.
