Has anyone found the pacific yew tree growing up in the redwoods ? these two species of trees have overlapping habitats (both on the extreme west coast of california) and the berries of the yew tree are carried by birds and the seeds are are then deposited, some in trees. Both of these trees will grow for thousands of years. I also saw another photo where there is an exchange of nutrients between the host and the guest plant. I have heard that it is common for the yew tree to be growing next to a redwood. The lumbering companies would cut down the yew (which was considered worthless) just to get to the redwood for harvesting for profit. The yew tree is now considered very valuble because is contains TAXOL. I just wonder has anyone found a yew tree growing up in a redwood ?
