Salix caprea Pendula, commonly known as Dwarf Weeping Kilmarnock Willow, is a small ornamental tree with pendulous branches and a weeping habit. The leaves are narrow and elongated, and the tree produces fluffy catkins in early spring. This tree is ideal for small gardens, patios, or as a feature plant in a mixed border. The weeping habit of the branches makes it an excellent choice for adding height and texture to a garden. The soft, silvery foliage adds a beautiful contrast to other plants in the garden, and the tree looks particularly stunning when planted near water features. The catkins produced in early spring are a striking addition to the garden and add a touch of elegance to any outdoor space.
Why we like it:
- Ideal for small gardens and patios due to its compact size and weeping habit
- Adds height and texture to a garden
- Striking catkins add a touch of elegance to any outdoor space

- Regular pruning is recommended to maintain its shape and promote new growth
- Propagation is best done through softwood cuttings in early summer
- Catkins are produced in early spring, and the tree can also produce fruit
- Can be susceptible to pests such as aphids and scale insects
