Weeping WillowSalix babylonica. This graceful giant is known for its open crown of wispy, ground-sweeping branches and long, slender leaves. Often seen as one of the first indications of spring, the weeping willowâs yellow twigs and green foliage appear early in the seasonâsometimes as early as February. The tree is easy to grow and quick to take root, reaching heights between 30' and 40' and nearly the same in width. It lends itself well to planting singly or in small groves near the edge of ponds, lakes and rivers.
