The full‑leaf willow ‘Integra’, grafted on a stem, is an exceptional garden ornament that, once shaped, forms a picturesque small tree with gently weeping branches. Its greatest charm lies in its decorative red shoots, which look beautiful in winter, and its two‑coloured leaves – green with a subtle pink tint. In early spring, the plant becomes covered with soft, fluffy catkins, one of the first signs of the coming season. Thanks to its colour and form, it pairs wonderfully with plants with darker foliage, creating striking contrasts. It works perfectly in rock gardens, flower beds, near ponds, or as an elegant accent in home gardens. Regular pruning makes it easy to maintain the desired shape and size. ‘Integra Pendula’ is frost‑resistant. It grows best in sunny or lightly shaded locations. It prefers moderately moist soil but also performs well in typical garden soil. It thrives particularly well near water features. Cultivation and interesting facts – Willow is a honey‑producing plant; its golden pollen attracts insects but may cause allergies. – It tolerates pruning very well, so its shoots can be shortened without worry. – It grows best in full sun and does not tolerate dry, poor soils. Pruning tips – The best time for pruning is April. – Cut shoots above 2–3 well‑developed buds facing outward. – Remove all weak, damaged or dead branches; very old ones can be removed entirely. – Shorten overly long shoots and those disturbing the crown shape. – Formative pruning can be repeated every 5–6 weeks, with the last cut in September.
