In Spring and throughout Summer striking pink-tipped and mottled green leaves emerge and provide a light, variegated, compact display. Named the 'Flamingo' tree, for it's flamingo coloured new growth, also bares  yellow catkins on bare branches, during late winter and early spring. Being a Willow it does prefer a damp or wet soil in ideally full sun. If plamted in partial shade, the leaf variegation will not be as striking. Often used as a patio tree because it is neat, compact and a small, aesthetically pleasing tree. It will reach up to 2.5m in height and spread.
