Overview. Storax trees are fragrant deciduous small trees or large bushes that grow in mild and sheltered areas. The tree is named for the Hebrew word stacte (meaning liquid drop) because of the tree's sap or gum produced from its bark.
The weeping willow (Salix babylonica) is the most common of the Salix trees. It grows up to 50 feet tall and 40 feet wide. The tree's branches flow from the weeping branches to the ground, providing privacy both behind and directly beneath the tree.
