Hicks Yew without berries?

Susan C
4 years ago

I'm finding conflicting information on the internet as to whether the Hicks variety has both male and female plants. I'm basically wanting the Hicks Yew, but without the berries. Is it possible to find a male hicks with no berries? The Hicks seems to be widely available near me, while the Hatfield (male only?) is harder to find.

    Many online retailers say they have male varieties of Hicksii.

    My Hicksii came from a BBS in July and later in the season, I noticed lots of berries. Don't know where it got pollinated from, might be there were other types of Yews at the growers?

    My Tantaun appears to be a male so it makes me wonder what I can expect in the future if I try to germinate the seeds.
