The Golden Weeping Willow tree (Salix x sepulcratis var. chrysocoma / Alba Tristis) is a tree found alongside rivers and lakes and wetland areas. A fast-growing, rambling, weeping tree, making at least 1m (1ft 4in) of new growth per year. Reaching a final height of 20m (66ft 8in), if left untrimmed, this tree is distinguished by its attractive new growth in spring, which is a warm golden colour. Like all willows, this tree is best planted well away from buildings as its root system can interefere with foundations. Our Golden Weeping willow trees are supplied at a height of between 1.5 and 1.7 metres in a 12L 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.
