Notes

'Flamingo' hybrid willow (Salix integra 'Flamingo') is a shrub for borders, hedges, and winter interest. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, loamy or clay soil. It grows at a rapid rate and has an arching habit. Bees visit the spring blooms, which open from early to late spring.
