Pacific Yew (Taxus brevifolia Nutt.) is a long lived conifer in the Yew family. It usually grows between 20-40 feet, occasionally up to 75, and 1-2 feet in diameter. The bark is reddish purple and flakes off in irregular, thin patches. Flowers bloom early summer, producing male and female cones on separate trees.
The Pacific yew grows slowly and the species is typically found as an occasional tree in stands of other tree species, therefore the volumes of the Pacific yew are low. Trees larger than 50 cm in diameter and 60 feet tall are rare within most of the species' range: they account for less than 2 percent of the yew trees .
