A weeping willow cultivar with golden bark. It may be used in wet soils and reaches a height and spread of about 50 feet. Fast growing.

Narrow shiny green leaves appear early and have a bright golden-yellow fall color.  Bare branches in winter are quite interesting. Prefers full sun and a moist location.  Can withstand standing water for several weeks.  Useful to dry up low, moist areas in the landscape as well.  Keep away from septic fields and sewer lines as roots may invade.
