Product Description
The lovely branches of the Salix caprea pendula, or willow as its commonly known, can provide you garden with all year round interest. Stiff, arching brightly coloured shoots form a mound or mophead shape in winter. In spring come long silver fuzzy catkins that open to soft silky flowers with yellow anthers, before the gracefully hanging lush foliage appears. These are grafted on an approximately 1.2-1-5m head, so the height always will remain the same, an ideal plant when a striking feature is needed but space is limited.
