An attractive small Pussy Willow tree (Salix caprea 'Kilarnock') is ideally suited for planting in a small garden or keeping in a large pot on a patio. An absolute delight in spring when very little else is in blossom, the branches of this tree are covered with large, fluffy, silver coloured catkins that are studded with golden anthers (pussy willows). An Ideal choice for tubs or patios. Expect a final height of 2.5m (8ft 4in). This little weeping tree is supplied at a height of 1.5m (5ft) in a 12 litre container for year round planting and better results than from bare-root or rootballed stock. As with most weeping trees, you can determine final height by allowing the tree to grow to the height you require and then cut the main trunk/stem. If you are going to restrict growth by keeping it in the pot and then planting it, you need to remember to feed every year. The larger the pot, the larger the tree will grow. Message card included at no additional cost if required. Just add the information required on the card at checkout.
Water Logged Conditions So long as you do not have permanent standing water e.g. your local diving and sailing club meets on your lawn then Willow, Alder, Birch and Poplar will be ok to plant and maybe even help lower the level. All ornamental trees (not vines) are topped at 1.3 metres to encourage a natural ornamental tree shape with obvious exceptions e.g. patio sizes.This means that your tree was pruned during the growing process and then allowed to grow to the size it is now supplied at.
