Salix alba “Tristis” is commonly known as Golden Weeping Willow in recognition of its bright golden yellow branches. It is a fast growing, large tree that is often found near a source of water as it prefers a moist, wet area that might flood for a short period of time.  Golden Weeping Willow should not be planted near wells, sewer lines, leach fields or septic tanks as the roots could cause significant damage.
