Desert willow (Chilopsis linearis), with its delicate, pale green leaves and large, fragrant flowers, loses its leaves in winter. A North American native, desert willow grows wild in the southwestern United States and Mexico. It commonly grows in desert areas that flood seasonally, like stream beds and low canyon areas.
