The 'Maki' Podocarpus is the compact, refined cousin of the standard Yew Pine, perfect for smaller spaces and precise landscaping. It features shorter, softer, gray-green needles and a naturally dense, columnar to oval shape that requires less pruning to maintain. Its finer texture and more manageable size make it an outstanding choice for low hedges, foundation plantings, or as a graceful, architectural accent in beds and containers.

• A dwarf, compact cultivar with shorter, softer, gray-green needles than the species.

• Naturally forms a dense, upright, columnar to oval shrub, requiring minimal pruning for shape.

• Very slow-growing, maturing at 8-15 feet tall but often kept much smaller.

• Shares the same shade tolerance, drought resistance, and deer resistance as the species.

• Perfect for low to medium hedges, framing entryways, or adding evergreen structure to mixed borders.

• An exceptional choice for formal gardens and Asian-inspired landscapes due to its neat habit.
