Salix-Carpea is a hybrid willow plant resulting from the crossbreeding of two willow species, Salix caprea (goat willow) and Salix viminalis (basket willow).
This hybrid inherits characteristics from both parent plants, typically displaying a shrubby, deciduous nature with elongated, lance-shaped leaves. The leaves are often serrated and have a green hue.
Salix-Carpea is known for its adaptability to various soil conditions and its rapid growth. It is commonly cultivated for its flexible branches, making it suitable for basket weaving and other crafts. The plant is also valued for its ornamental appeal, especially in landscaping and garden settings. The hybrid’s growth habit can vary, with some specimens reaching heights of several meters.
