  1. stinking yew

    Stinking Yew doesn't refer to a specific plant or tree in botanical terminology. The term "yew" typically refers to trees from the Taxus species, known for their evergreen foliage and red berry-like fruits. None of them are acknowledged for a particularly foul smell. If "stinking yew" is used, it might refer to a yew tree with a noticeable unpleasant odor, possibly due to factors like disease, decay, or external contamination. However, it's not a standard or widely recognized term in botany or horticulture. So, it would be best to seek local or specific context.
