About this tree

The Tri-Color Dappled Willow bursts into shrimp-pink new growth each spring that settles into a dappled blend of white, cream, and green for a soft, glowing effect all season. This fast-growing shrub reaches 8-10 ft. tall and 6-8 ft. wide and is hardy across USDA zones 5-9. It can be grown as a free-form shrub, pruned into a tidy hedge, or trained as a small weeping standard. Plant in full to partial sun in moist soil and shear in early spring to keep the brightest color.

Full planting & care

Planting+

Choose a spot with full sun or partial sun and moist, well drained soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep, set the tree so the top of the root ball is level with the ground, backfill, and water in well. Space about 6 ft. - 8 ft. from other plants.

Watering+

Water deeply about once a week while it establishes, then ease off as roots take hold.

Fertilizing+

Feed in early spring with a balanced slow-release fertilizer formulated for trees and shrubs. A second light feeding in early summer supports vigorous growth. Avoid fertilizing late in the season.

Pruning+

Prune lightly in late winter to shape; for a formal hedge, trim the sides and top once or twice through the growing season to keep it dense.

Frequently asked questions

How do I keep the bright pink and white color?+

Prune hard in early spring. The most vivid color appears on fresh new growth, so a yearly shear keeps it glowing.

Can I grow it as a hedge?+

Yes - it responds well to shearing and makes an excellent fast-growing informal hedge or specimen.

How big does it get?+

Left unpruned it reaches 8-10 ft. tall and 6-8 ft. wide, but it's easily kept smaller with pruning.

What zones is it hardy in?+

It thrives across USDA zones 5 through 9.
