Olive willow is a graceful, multi-stemmed shrub valued for its narrow, silvery-green foliage and fine texture. The slender leaves give it a soft, airy look in the landscape, while early spring catkins provide an important food source for pollinators. This adaptable willow is a great choice for naturalized areas, shrub borders, and moisture-prone sites.
