The Dappled Willow (Salix integra 'Hakuro Nishiki') is a striking deciduous shrub known for its vibrant, variegated foliage that changes color with the seasons. In spring, new leaves emerge in soft pink tones, gradually maturing into a mix of creamy white, pale green, and light pink, giving the plant its signature "dappled" appearance. Its graceful, arching branches add a soft, flowing texture to the landscape, making it a favorite for borders, hedges, or focal points. With regular pruning, it can also be shaped into a small tree form.

Dappled Willow thrives in moist, well-drained soil and prefers full sun to partial shade for the best foliage coloration. It's fast-growing and relatively low-maintenance, though it does benefit from annual pruning to encourage new growth and maintain its compact, bushy shape. This plant is cold-hardy, deer-resistant, and tolerant of wet soils, making it a versatile option in a variety of garden settings. Its colorful foliage provides multi-season interest, brightening up landscapes from spring through fall.
