Salix chaenomeloides
z. 5 – 9 ht. 14′ – 20′
Giant Japanese Pussy Willow produces the most beautiful large 2″ pinkish-white catkins with yellow-tipped anthers. This willow is vigorous and can get large but can easily be pruned to size after the spring bloom is finished. Highly ornamental and recommended.
All willows and especially the pussy willows contain large amounts of nectar and pollen when in bloom and are very important food-sources to bees at a time of year when not much else is blooming.
All Willows are 1-gal. size
