The Maire yew is a hybrid variety introduced to China at the end of the 20th century. Its female parent is the Japanese yew (T. CUSPIDATA) and its male parent is the European yew (. T. BACCDFA). It has a history of no more than 80 years in the United States and Canada. The Maire yew is mostly shrub-type. Because it can only grow into a shrub and cannot grow into a tree, it is a good variety for landscaping.
