Podocarpus

Podocarpus - Evergreen trees of the Yew tribe, tender in Britain save in the mildest parts. P. chilina is a handsome tree which has reached a fair size in a few sheltered gardens, and P. japonica and P. macrophylla from Japan, and P. Totara from New Zealand, may prove more or less hardy along the South Coast when older and well established. P. alpina, from the mountains of Tasmania, is probably the hardiest of the group, but is only a Yew-like shrub of semi-prostrate habit, more interesting than beautiful.
