Name this shrub?
 

This shrub is about 5' tall, what is it?

What is Podocarpus?
 

It sure looks like a Podocarpus. I have some in my back yard as a hedge to hide a green electrical box.

I agree podocarpus.

It's also called yew pine.....podocarpus.

name this plant
 

I would name it "George."

Sorry, but that's NOT correct. The fruit (the fleshy part) of the berries is not toxic, only the seed.

The fruit is actually edible, so there certainly is no danger in just touching the berries.

Podocarpus macrophyllus | Eat The Weeds and other things, too

I would call it "Philomena Podocarpus".

.......or just Phil, for short. :D

Bill :)

can you do that?
 

is it legal to grow that in the state of FL???
