Whose gaze doesn’t stop on the stoic, graceful Weeping Willow seen from their car window when driving by? The statuesque weeping willow can dominate a landscape and is recognized at a glance. Whether situated alone in a yard or adorning a lake or pond with its spiraling branches arching to the ground, adorned with its long, narrow bright green leaves. Adaptable to many soil types and both acidic and alkaline soils, it does prefer medium to wet conditions. It flowers in late winter or early spring on attractive yellow/green catkins.
