Often called ‘The Graceful Giant’, the Weeping Willow is an old favorite beloved by many. Its open crown of wispy, ground-sweeping branches and long, slender leaves are a sight to behold. The tree’s yellow twigs and green foliage appear early in the season, often used as an indicator to the beginning of spring. Yellow flowers appear on short catkins in April and May. These are accented by the light green, narrow and finely toothed leaves.
The willow’s high adaptability and wide range of use make it well sought after. Its rounded shape and elegant stature and presence make it a fine focal point or accent for any landscape.
