Taxus cuspidata Capitata is listed by Daniels Nursery as a Japanese yew in the yew section of its 1950 planting guide. The catalog says it grows with a single stem and upright, symmetrical branches. [S1]
The source treats it as an ornamental evergreen, not a fruit cultivar. It appears on a dense nursery catalog page with junipers, pines, spruces, and yews, plus general evergreen planting advice and pricing by size. [S1]
The available record gives no parentage, breeder, release date, fruit description, culinary use, or hardiness zone. The only growing note says it is "good for very slow locations," though the phrase is unclear in the extracted text. [S1]
