About half of all known Willow species grow as Trees, most others grow as shrubs, and some Willows grow as miniature (Alpine) Sub-Shrubs. As some species of Willow can grow as either a tree or a shrub, depending on their local habitat, this site will list the names of all Willows without regard to growth habit.
1 The Hybrid Poplar is a very tall growing tree, whereas the Hybrid Willow maximum height is between 6 and 9 m depending on variety. 2  The first coppice of Poplar will result in large logs than Willow, but the overall weight of dry wood is similar over a four year growing period. We advise plating Poplar with a planting space of 1m rather than the 75cm with willow if plating to form logs. 2  Both the planting of Poplar and Willow need some preparation to the ground first to eliminate competition form weed and grass.
