'Kilmarnock' Dwarf Weeping Willow Tree | Salix caprea
- Weeping willows are meant to symbolise sorrow, but when we look at ‘Kilmarnock’, we feel nothing but joy!
- With its downy catkins, graceful pendulous branches and lovely green foliage, this tree deserves a starring role in any small to medium-sized garden.
- Discovered on a Scottish riverbank back in the 19th century, this tree grows wonderfully in wet ground, making it the perfect choice for gardens prone to waterlogging.
- Fully hardy, easy to maintain and suitable for patio growing – topping out at around the two metre mark – ‘Kilmarnock’ takes the notion that bigger automatically equals better and grinds it into the ground.
- To top it all off, it’s certified as one of the Royal Horticultural Society’s Plants for Pollinators, so you can feel good knowing that this little tree will bring the bees (including Clarke’s mining bees, sallow mining bees and spring mining bees).
- Please note that young trees often don't have a weeping shape, particularly when they arrive early in the year after being pruned – but hold tight and that unique form will develop over time.
