Bare Root, 3 ft. to 4 ft. T Green Weeping Willow Tree

Stock status: In stock
Country: United Kingdom

Stately and iconic, Green Weeping Willow is a dynamic show of color, texture and movement. With its astonishingly fast growth rate, this tree will quickly make a statement in a landscape with its pronounced weeping habit and flowing branches that gracefully weep toward the ground, swaying at the gentlest tug of the wind. The finely toothed leaves show spectacular detail of shape up close, while the light green hue on the topside creates an alternating illusion of color when breezes show the silvery undersides of the leaves. Another huge advantage of Willow trees is their ability to thrive in wet and waterlogged soils. In flooded ground and low-lying areas where other trees cannot even grow, the Green Weeping Willow will absolutely thrive, capable of gaining over 2 ft. of new growth every year. This adaptability to wet soil has made Willow trees a preferred choice for erosion control plantings as well as landscaping near ponds and streams. The Green Weeping Willow, botanical name Salix Babylonia, is most comfortable in USDA Cold Hardiness Zones 5-10 and becomes quite large at maturity, reaching a height/spread of 30 ft. to 50 ft. This iconic variety of ornamental tree is hardy, beautiful, incredibly fast-growing and thrives in wet soils. Whether your goal is creating instant shade in a lawn or to landscape near flooded areas, the Green Weeping Willow Tree is a versatile and elegant choice with many applications.
