Fast Growing Shrub Loves Wet Areas

The Pink Pussy Willow, Salix discolor rosea, this form of Pussy Willow has the most unique, pale pink catkins. This is a very fast growing shrub and is suitable for wet areas. Best of all, it grow well in almost any soil.

They require full sun to really thrive, but will tolerate the shade as well. As with most Willows, they do best when given lots of water. Although they can be allowed to grow unpruned, the plant will benefit from regular pruning after blooming.

Flowers form on the previous season's growth, not on new growth, so do not prune until the flowers have faded. For early blooms for forcing and floral arrangements, cut branches of Pussy Willows may be brought in and set in a water filled vase in a sunny window anytime after the middle of January.

The catkins will develop and make a nice display for a considerably long time. These shrubs always sell out fast. Buy yours today!

Hi Lisa,

Thank you so much for sharing your lovely thoughts about the Pink Pussy Willow! We absolutely agree—the soft pink hues really do capture the essence of spring and bring a gentle, cheerful vibe to any garden. Seeing those delicate blooms returning each season is such a wonderful reminder that warmer days are just around the corner.

If you’re looking to make the most of your Pussy Willow’s beautiful springtime display, planting it in a spot where it gets plenty of sunlight will encourage those vibrant colors to flourish. Also, they tend to do well in slightly moist soil but can adapt to different conditions—just a little care goes a long way!

Our pink pussy willow grew very fast and that has let us use the branches for cuttings to bring inside for early pink catkin flowers. That seems to make spring come earlier in our cold country. Like you said, I cut some of the branches off in January and placed them in water by a warm window and it was not long before I had spring, inside the house that is.

Dear M&M,

Thank you so much for sharing your lovely experience with the Pink Pussy Willow! We’re thrilled to hear that your willow has grown quickly and that you’re enjoying bringing those early pink catkins indoors—in nothing like creating a little spring warmth ahead of time, especially in a colder climate. It’s wonderful when JoNatures dur thriving branches can brighten your home and spirits during the winter months.

Your method of cutting branches and placing them by a warm window in January is a perfect tip for others wanting an early splash of spring. For added success, ensuring the cut branches have fresh clean cuts and changing the water regularly can help keep those catkins blooming longer indoors. If you ever want to experiment further, pairing the stockings they bring with simple seasonal vases could enhance that cozy spring atmosphere in your home!

Thank you again for your thoughtful feedback and for trusting Nature Hills with your gardening journey. We look forward to hearing more from you as your beautiful plants continue to flourish.
