Description
Pussy Willow French Pink is a stunning ornamental tree that brings a fresh splash of color and texture to the landscape. In late winter to early spring, its branches are covered with magnificent, soft pink catkins that gradually transition to a silvery-white hue, adding bold seasonal interest before the foliage emerges. The slender, deep green leaves provide a polished, elegant backdrop through summer, making this tree a satisfying addition to mixed plantings, wetland edges, or as a statement specimen. With its rapid growth and textural appeal, this willow is one of the finest choices for adding year-round structure and early-season beauty.

General Care

  • Sunlight: Prefers full sun to part sun
  • Watering: Water regularly after planting to establish strong roots and encourage vigorous growth; once established, requires little supplemental watering except in prolonged dry periods
  • Mulching: Apply a 2-inch layer of mulch to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature
  • Pruning: Prune in late winter to maintain shape and encourage strong branching

With its showstopping pink catkins, refined summer foliage, and fast-growing habit, Pussy Willow French Pink is an inspiring addition to the landscape, delivering early-season brilliance and lasting visual interest.
