Description
This beautiful standard tree bursts into life each spring with glorious pink-blushed, creamy white and fresh green foliage.
Commonly known as the 'Flamingo Willow' for its showy pink-tinted leaves, Salix 'Hakuro-nishiki' is a striking compact tree that brings height, colour and structure to almost any garden setting. It looks especially effective in a patio pot, beside an entrance or used to lift a mixed border.
Your tree will arrive at approximately 80–90cm tall, skilfully trained into a neat lollipop shape. Each spring, it produces a fresh flush of rich green, cream-white and delicate blush-pink foliage, creating a long-lasting display that continues into early winter.
Fully hardy and wonderfully easy to grow, this low-maintenance tree thrives in a wide range of garden situations and reaches only around 2.5m tall. A simple annual prune is all it needs to keep its rounded shape looking smart and attractive.
