Salix babylonica
The Weeping Willow is easily recognized for its ground sweeping graceful branches and rounded crown. Long narrow leaves are a light green with silvery-green backs. This willow is one of the first trees to leaf out in the spring and one of the last to lose them in the fall.
- Effective at edges of ponds and lakes
- Leaves turn a golden yellow in fall
- Nice focal point in large lawns
