Salix Caprea ‘Kilmarnock’

When yellow-grey catkins appear on the naked weeping branches of this Kilmarnock Willow, it’s a sure sign that spring has arrived in your garden. Salix caprea ‘Kilmarnock’ is a deciduous small tree that makes a fabulous architectural specimen. The weeping branches form a dense, rounded dome that remains compact over many years. The green summer foliage turns to gold in autumn, before leaving the stems bare once more, revealing a striking winter silhouette. Kilmarnock Willow is ideal for adding interest to rockeries, borders and patio containers. It makes a useful small tree for a wildlife area, where it provides early nectar for insects. Height and spread: 2.5m (98″).

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
