Weeping Willow - Niobe - DetailsWeeping Willow - Niobe - Sale Price: $99.95
Also known as the Niobe Gold Weeping Willow. A choice selection for colder climates, this imposing tree has a wide, spreading canopy of pendulous, swaying branches and decorative golden bark that is quite extraordinary. The Niobe Weeping Willow’s early-appearing leaves are slim, lance-shaped and fresh yellow-green, turning a bright golden-yellow in the fall. A superb specimen near water (or at least in a moist area), in full sun (or some shade) with plenty of elbow room. This is a large, fast-growing tree, so plan accordingly. Mature trees have some drought tolerance because the extensive root system can travel surprisingly long distances to get water, which is why you don’t want to plant it near septic systems and leaky sewer lines. Zones 2-9. Fall color Fast-Growing Gold Bark
