Yew Clippings ... Where -- if anywhere -- do I send them for Cancer Research ?
I've a couple of 3ft yew bushes in need of a prune ... and I have a vague memory of seeing Cancer Research appeals for yew clippings somewhere in Ireland.
I've tried all the search terms I can think of, but haven't managed to find anyone -- other than in the UK -- seeking the clippings.
What I have found, however, are a few references to Cancer Research facilities now being able to synthesise the "vital ingredient" ... so perhaps yew clippings are no longer required !
Perhaps someone here can point me in the right direction ?
If they're not needed for research purposes, I can always offer them as "cuttings" to anyone wishing to start a new hedge !
Many thanks, Anonany
