Identifying Tree from Germany

Hi All

I need help in identifying this tree, a bit of history I went to Germany on business and when I had a bit of time went for a walk in the parks this is where I came across this tree in the Dusseldorf area so immediately I grabbed some seeds and bought them back to South Africa .I only manage to bring 4 because I was afraid what they would say at the Airport so planted all 4 and only one germinated
If anyone has a Bonsai of this tree please post photos


Many Thanks
Joe

That's a yew tree, Taxus baccata
There are lots of examples as bonsai - search on here or on google.

They make great bonsai, but they do not take very well to the heat. Depending on your climate, maybe in a "few" years you can have something like this one.

In the meanwhile, keep the kids and the dogs away from it.

Strikes me as an unpleasant way to go.

Thank You all for your help
