Small tree or shrub growing to 24 ft. It has attractive “pussies” that can be forced for flower arrangements. Likes moist areas. In the willow family so it has roots which need to be kept away from septic systems. It can be distinguished from other willows by the underside of the leaf which sort of shines when you move it side to side. Description from Woodbrook Native Plant Nursery
