Weeping white willow 'Tristis'

FamilySalicaceae

Salix alba 'Tristis' is the archetypal classic weeping willow, known for its long, pendulous branches and fine, light green foliage that turns golden in autumn. Vigorous, hardy, and fast-growing, it thrives in cool to moist soils. It offers a spectacular presence as a standalone plant, particularly at the water's edge or in a park, where its supple, romantic shape creates a soothing and poetic atmosphere.
