Black Pussy Willow (Salix gracilistyla 'Melanostachys') is a rare and dramatic variety prized for its striking catkins. In early spring, the buds emerge with a deep, almost black hue, creating a stunning contrast against the bare branches. As the catkins mature, they develop silvery, soft textures with red-tipped anthers, adding a bold and unique visual interest to floral arrangements or outdoor displays.
This willow thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soils. Its dark, striking branches make it a favourite for crafting, floral designs, and ornamental use.
