Podocarpus elongatus (Breeder River yellowwood) is a species of conifer in the Podocarpaceae family. Unlike the other yellowwoods of Southern Africa, Podocarpus elongatus grows as an enormous, round, multi-stemmed bush.It can be distinguished from the other yellowwood species of Southern Africa by its relatively elongated, grey-blue leaves (hence its species name "elongatus"), and by its round, bushy shape. It is generally as wide as it is tall. This is the only one of South Africa's Yellowwoods that coppice when the trunk is damaged. As it is a riverine species, this ability to coppice is an adaptation to survive being knocked down by floods.
