Step 26 - Salix repens Boyd's Pendula BOYD'S DWARF TRAILING WILLOW Aka Alpine Willow. This weeping pussy willow originally introduced from China is now found throughout the U.S. and Canada. The Willow is an old world tree, much celebrated in poetry. Twigs and branchlets divide into thin stems that hang in pendulous curtains to the ground. Leaves sometimes with whitened or silky undersides. The stubby catkins are silver maturing to cream. Only 16" to 20" when fully grown. Likes sun. Deciduous. Keep outdoors. Can be staked up or made into a bonsai. Mine is next to the waterfall and drooping artistically over the water. Hopefully, with its roots in the water.
