Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A stunning Weeping form of Goat/French Pussy Willow. See more basic info under 'Select' below. This is truly a specimen tree for any yard. Compact habit can fit in almost anywhere but place it where the neighbors can drool because it's very hard to find in the trade!
