Re: A Willow Question


Bobbi,
Once again I find that you and I are usually attracted to the same plants.  I
found this willow last year and had to order it from Forest Farm.  The name
is Salix integra Hakuro Nishiki (if it is the one I think you're describing).


Another really interesting one I purchased last year is Salix babylonica
crispa, or the ram's horn willow.  Have you seen that one?  Each leaf shaped
like a little ram's horn?  I love it, although it's not a really tidy grower.
 I'm hoping the form will improve as it ages.  I wonder how these will be as
far as being prone to getting borers?  We have a problem with willows around
here, they don't usually live long because of them.
