OK, I'm totally impressed with a 21-year old Dappled Willow shrub! I bet it is stunning!! I can't wait for mine to grow large again. I'm limited somewhat with the white vinyl fence behind the shrubs, so they can't grow as "out" as I would love them to do. However, they are growing back nicely and patience is a virtue...supposedly! I'll be finally getting my video on propagating Dappled Willow uploaded here in the next week, so stay tuned for easy ways to create more shrubs!

Thank you for this information! I actually found your blog today and was working up all the information. This video is an added bonus. I’m planning on planting a dappled willow border between my yard and the neighbor’s. I love them, but a little privacy goes a long way. Do you have any recommendations of plants that I could plant with them. Flowers that look good with them?
@GardenSanity
3 жыл бұрын
I agree Julie, with a little privacy being a good thing, especially when it’s pretty! As for companion plants, I hesitate to suggest anything because I find that as Dappled Willow grows, the lowest branches arch down and may end up covering whatever you plant with them. My best suggestion is to plant your shrubs and wait at least two or three years to see how the shrubs look. This will give you some time to get used to the shrubs and decide what size and shape you prefer them to be. In the meantime, I’d gather up some containers and plant some flowers you can enjoy while also being able to “move” the flowers around without worrying about digging anything up that gets covered up by the Dappled Willow. If I was ever to plant anything underneath ours, I would choose something that was evergreen but also bloomed, such as Candytuft. You would enjoy low-growing white flowers in the Spring while the shrub was just leafing out. I might also try Lily of the Valley or possibly Ajuga. It all depends on your growing zone, of course. Lower growing shrubs in front of the Dappled Willow would also look nice, to provide some green during the Winter months. Just some ideas! Let me know what you end up doing!

I’ve read that Flamingo Willow is a “sport” of the original Dappled Willow but has the exact same growing characteristics. I’ve also read that Flamingo Willow is just an interchangeable name for Dappled Willow.

Yes, you can trim your Dappled Willow into a topiary or a small boxwood shape, however the roots will still develop underground and will spread beyond the drip line. Since it is in the Willow family, Dappled Willow’s roots love to spread. To keep the shrub or tree compact you will need to occasionally prune it to keep its shape. I hope this helps!

Second, I just purchased a little 10inch sapling and plan to plant it in a huge pot for my patio garden until I move to a permanent home. Any recommendations for keeping it in a container for a couple of years? I am grateful for any help you can offer. ❤️
@GardenSanity
3 жыл бұрын
Hi Lisa, For your 10-inch sapling, yes it can go into a pot for a few years. Make sure to provide it with lots of water as it grows, and you should be just fine. In the Winter season - not sure where you are located - you can keep it outside, but just move it nearest to your house, preferably in a sheltered area. The plant will go dormant, but you don’t want it to die out either. Periodically give it water during the dormant months IF there is a long drought without any rain or snow. It should be fine. Remember, even if the plant gets pruned back (while in a pot), the roots continue to grow. You want to be extra careful that the plant doesn't become "root bound" while in the pot. Planting your sapling into a larger container to begin with should prevent any worry. I hope this helps! (As for your aspirin question, I don't know but will probably look this up as it sounds interesting! I like to geek out on plant trivia, so thanks for the question!)

The pruning also would gave encouraged new growth so there would have been better stem color and better leaf color. A lot of the leaves reverted to all green, with no dappled color. Although it looked great having the shrubs grow wild, it ultimately led to drastic measures being necessary.

Even if you keep the shrub pruned, the roots continue to grow underground and trust me: they are large roots! Without knowing what kind of driveway you have - and not being a driveway expert 🤣 - the best I can advise is this shrub is not a smaller shrub that will keep its space next to a driveway like a boxwood, for example. If it was me, I’d choose something else to put near my driveway. I hope this helps!

Hi Terrence -- If left unpruned, Dappled Willow could grow possibly 15 to 20 feet tall. Ours had grown between 10 and 15 feet tall. The width was always hard to measure as we grew ours as a living wall. Of course the difficult part about just letting it grow is that the insides of the plant eventually die out and the plant starts to look bad, unless I suppose other plantings were placed in front of it so that the top-most growth was highlighted. If the insides hadn't died out, we would have loved to keep it tall! This time around, once it grows back, we plan on keeping it tall, but will prune more often, hopefully avoiding the dreaded empty inside! I hope this helps!

Well Jenny, they say that fences make good neighbors, but it sounds like this is a problem. Is talking to your neighbor a possibility? At the very least, they should understand that you want to cut the parts of the Dappled Willow that are hanging into your property and covering up your Japanese Maple and Magnolia. Ours are small now - obviously since we cut them - but when they were large, we would trim them from our neighbor’s yard at least once a year. It’s just part of being good neighbors. I hope they will do that for you. It sounds like they planted these shrubs not realizing how huge they get. Yes, they make great privacy hedges, but it’s not good if it starts impacting other people’s trees and landscapes. Perhaps start by letting them know you’d like to cut off the parts of the Dappled Willow affecting your trees. It’s possible that they can’t see what it looks like from their side, so they might not even realize how bad it is on your side. Hopefully they will say yes, or even offer to do it themselves. Let me know how it goes.

You want the roots to have time to get established in their new spot before the dormant season kicks in. Otherwise, my preferred time to move shrubs is early Spring. It's a perfect time since you can transplant the shrub, then let it get situated for a few weeks....then do any pruning you might need to do and give it a good amount of fertilizer after pruning. And then still be able to enjoy the late Spring wonderful pink coloring! I hope this helps! 😀

Hi Bobby, I bet your Dappled Willows look wonderful. It’s fine to cut off any growth that is leaning and shading areas you don’t want covered. When ours were large, we did that at least once a year. You can prune them in late Fall if you want, but waiting until late Winter or early Spring is better, as the new buds will already begin to be visible. If you cut just above a set of buds, the new growth will then hide that pruning cut. But as you already know, these plants grow fast, so any pruning cuts won’t be visible for long! I hope this helps?

Hi Cecilia, I'm pretty sure -- although I could be proven wrong, as that's always a possibility 😂 -- that grafted forms of Dappled Willow are usually the tree forms, not the shrub forms. The reason for this is because it is easier to grow a "tree" of Dappled Willow using a sturdier stem of a similar tree. (Although people have successfully grown Dappled Willow trees from plant cuttings not grafted as well.) The shrub forms of Dappled Willow aren't grafted to anything at all. I don't think there would ever be a need to cut back a Dappled Willow tree severely like this, as these tree forms -- often looking like a single stem with a rounded shrub on the top -- are much easier to maintain. I hope this helps?

Hi Emily, Yes, when the Dappled Willow leaves get dry and shrivel up, they simply need more water. And lots of water. Dappled Willow love water! Please watch my latest Dappled Willow video, where I actually mention about giving too much water (seeing small yellow leaves) versus not enough water (edges of leaves begin turning brown and shriveling up.) Don't worry about cutting any of the drying leaves off -- they will fall off on their own. A lot of water will do wonders for your Dappled Willow plants. And don't throw those two Dappled Willow away. Unless they never sprouted any green at all, they aren't dead. Probably just need more water, and then they'll begin to produce new leaves. When in doubt -- with Dappled Willow -- err on the side of more water! That's great you added a hose and timer, but it sounds like you may need to increase the frequency of water as well as how much water each shrub gets. I hope this helps! Please keep me posted! 🌱
