The spring foliage of Salix nakamurana yezo alpina is a thickly felted silver-green with one-inch catkins. In fall, the leaves turn intensely yellow. This is dramatic, slow spreading ground cover for an area with regular water. Also useful as a speciman in a large container where it can grow down over the side. The non-linear habit of the branches forms an interesting tracery in the winter. A Great Plant Picks selection.
