In game they are examined as “The roots of the Yew tree.” Yew roots are members-only, so a membership is needed to trade or use them. The base game value is 1 gp, which is what shops price from rather than what players pay.
The Grand Exchange lets one account buy 11,000 every 4 hours. That is a generous limit, so the market rather than the limit is usually what caps a position here. Filling it once costs about 671,000 gp at the 61 gp price recorded on 11 October 2026. The limit is per account and resets on a rolling 4-hour timer.
Selling at 61 gp costs 1 gp in tax — 2%, rounded down, taken from the seller. A flip has to clear that before it makes anything, and it is the number most margin calculators leave out.
High alchemy turns Yew roots into 1 gp. That is less than the 142 gp nature rune the cast costs, so alching Yew roots always loses money.
