Salix integra 'Hakuro Nishiki'
Salix integra 'Hakuro Nishiki', or dappled willow, is a highly striking ornamental shrub, prized for its unique foliage mottled with white, soft green, and soft pink in spring, which evolves throughout the season while maintaining a luminous and vibrant texture. Its rounded and dense habit, often grafted onto a standard for a decorative ball effect, makes it a star in contemporary gardens, colorful flowerbeds, or potted arrangements on the patio. Highly decorative even when not in bloom, it draws the eye with its cloud-like silhouette and the delicate nature of its young shoots. It thrives in fresh to moist soils and requires annual pruning to maintain its shape and revive the color of its foliage. Robust, hardy, and with a refined style, 'Hakuro Nishiki' combines Japanese elegance and ease of maintenance to enhance outdoor spaces.
