Red Twisted Willow Tree | Salix ‘Scarlet Curls’
- A highly striking and impressive twisted willow, ‘Scarlet Curls’ is an ornamental tree of understandable renown
- Crimson coloured, tortuous branches add exceptional visual interest throughout the year, but particularly when bare of leaves in the winter
- The newer, red shoot growth becomes more orange or tawny as it ages
- Pretty downy catkins appear in the spring before the tree’s twisting, lanceolate foliage comes through/li>
- A naturally hardy tree, this willow likes to be planted in moist but well drained soil, and in a sunny position
- Winner of the RHS Award of Garden Merit
- Our trees are usually between 18 and 36 months old at the time of dispatch
- Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming “leggy”, and promote stronger, bushier growth
