- Throughout spring and summer, eye catching pink tipped small leaves sit against a back drop of mottled green and white variegated foliage on Salix integra 'Hakuro-Nishiki'. The Flamingo tree, as it is often known, also boasts yellow catkins that appear on bare orange/brown branches in late winter or early spring.
-Popular as a patio tree due to it's small size (2.5 x 2.5 metres in 20 years) and bushy lolly pop shape, we think 'Hakuro-Nishiki' looks equally nice planted next to water. It actually prefers a damp site, so a good watering regime is required if patio planting. The branches are pendulous at their tips and can be grown like this or pruned into a neater form; the latter is often preferred when it is grown on a patio.
- Salix integra 'Hakuro-Nishiki' is a striking variety of dwarf Willow tree that is ideal for when space is limited
