Weeping Willow

Salix babylonica, commonly known as the Weeping Willow, is a majestic deciduous tree renowned for its graceful, pendulous branches that sweep toward the ground. This tree is native to China but has become a beloved ornamental and shade tree in various parts of the world. Thriving in moist to wet soil and requiring full sun to partial shade, the Weeping Willow is often planted near water bodies, such as ponds or streams, where its trailing branches can create a dramatic and picturesque scene. The long, slender leaves are narrow and lance-shaped, with a fresh green color that provides a soothing atmosphere.
