Willow Trees, Weeping Trees, and Types of Weeping Willow Trees

Originating in China where it is a symbol of immortality and rebirth, there are approximately 420 types of willow trees in the world.

They are a part of the genus Salicaceae family, but only 100 of them emigrated to the United States centuries ago and have become culturally adopted as a native species as they have a tendency to hybridize.

Only about 40 of them grow to their full tree size of between 40-80 feet depending on local conditions, and it’s important to remember that all willows are not of the weeping variety.

The black willow, peachleaf willow, and the Pacific willow are just a few that appear as normal trees with normal heights, while others like the sandbar willow and the Bebb willow have a shrub-like appearance.

The weeping willow is an easily recognizable tree with its branches bowing wearily under the weight of its leaves that are more often than not brushing the ground as if the worries of the world were leaning heavily on it from above.

Many of them grow to heights of 10 ft plus, such as the weeping flowering apricot, the weeping Japanese maple, and even the weeping Pagoda can reach heights of 25 feet.

Most of these trees are deciduous and as the branches shrug off the leaves in winter, they have a brief respite where they can stretch skyward before the leaves bear down again and the yearly process is repeated.

Here is a brief overview of some types of willow trees, weeping willow trees, and dwarf weeping willow tree.1

Kilmarnock Willow, the Dwarf Weeping Willow Tree: What To Know Before Planting

Also known as the puss* willow, the Kilmarnock willow species Salix caprea is the only one of the puss* willow varieties, of which there are three, Salix daphnoides (violet willow), Salix gracilistyla ‘Mount Aso’ (Japanese pink puss* willow), and the Salix hastata Wehrhahnii (halberd willow), that weeps.

Among weeping willow varieties, the Kilmarnock dwarf weeping willow tree is one of the most popular to be planted in lawns across the United States, not solely because it’s easy to plant and care for, but because of its splendid ornamental nature.

All types of weeping willow trees have catkins, a specific type of flower found on willow trees, birches, and chestnut trees. Fluffy and only a few inches long, they don’t at first appear to be flowers but they are integral to the trees’ reproduction process.

A catkin’s color can range from silver to pink, yellow, green, sky blue, and white and can even change color with the change of the season, as in the case of the Kilmarnock weeping willow.

The emergence of the fluffy blue-grey furry catkins is a precursor to the beginning of spring as they bloom into a bright yellow hue surrounded by dark green leaves, their undersides a contrasting silver-grey.

As an ornamental miniature tree, it is ideal to place in planters around a patio or along a walkway in the knowledge that it won’t get any bigger, but it will get a lot better as it fills out and, even though it’s generally set to one side, will take center stage sooner rather than later.

Desert Willow Tree and the Pink Willow Tree

The desert willow tree is unusual among willow trees as growing up in the blazing hot climate of the desert doesn’t bother it in the slightest.4 It can take the form of a shrub or a small tree with a height of up to 26 feet.

The pink willow tree couldn’t be more opposite, its flamboyant pink foliage requires more access to water and it is not as tolerant of consistently high temperatures.

Either of them would be a bonus in any yard, but one would demand more care and attention than the other.

Planting a Dwarf Weeping Willow Tree

Weeping willow trees are very hardy and can grow in the USDA Plant Hardiness Zones of 4 to 10, which means weeping willows can survive in temperatures from -30°F to 35°F, as long as the roots have access to enough water.

To plant the Kilmarnock Willow in ideal conditions, the soil needs to be slightly acidic and moist as willow trees thrive best near bodies of water that get a lot of sunlight.

That is not to say that they cannot do well in urban situations as dwarf weeping willow trees are very adaptive to their surroundings as long as the soil is kept moist with plenty of direct sunlight.

Planting a dwarf weeping willow tree around a home environment is appealing and practical on many levels and in small landscapes, a miniature tree can make a big impact, bringing a splash of color whether planted directly in the yard or seated in a large plant pot.

Knowing that the tree will not grow beyond 8 feet allows the homeowner the flexibility to place the tree in a wide variety of locations.

However, the placement and care for a dwarf weeping willow have to be considered as the roots can be somewhat invasive and become widespread.

If there is not a steady supply of water to the weeping willow tree roots they will take it upon themselves to go in search of it, and they have been known to disrupt electrical cables, damage underground water pipes, and even penetrate walls when thirsty.3

Essentially, therefore, one of the first considerations when deciding in which part of your lawn your newly purchased dwarf weeping willow tree is going to be situated has to be the soil suitability.

To ascertain if that perfect spot is as perfect as it needs to be, a simple method is to

dig slightly below the surface of the yard and do the squeeze test with a handful of the soil. If the earth clumps together or if any drops of water drip out, then you’re good to go.

If it’s as dry as a desert even as you dig deeper, then either another spot needs to be tested or an underground irrigation or sprinkler system needs to be installed. If that sounds like too much hard work then potting your dwarf weeping willow tree may be the only option.

A Dwarf Weeping Willow Tree: What To Know Before Planting (Full Guide)

There is quite a range of dwarf weeping willow trees that are between 6-8 feet that can survive in varied landscapes. Some require less daily sun exposure than others, but they all require access to a steady supply of water.

Dwarf Weeping WillowSizeUSDA ZoneRequirements
Dwarf Weeping Mulberry6 feet3 – 9Partial shade with well-draining soil
Dwarf Weeping Willow5 feet4 – 10Moist soil and good sunlight
Dwarf Purple Weeping Willow Tree6 feet4 – 7Water whenever the soil becomes dry and plant in full sun
Dwarf Purple Weeping Willow5 feet4 – 6Water daily during summer months and prune to control growth
Dwarf Kilmarnock Weeping Willow5 feet4 – 8Can thrive in permanently wet locations and needs fertilizing in spring
Weeping Dappled Willow6 feet4 – 9acidic to slightly alkaline soil that is well-drained and moist
Dwarf Dragon Willow Tree6 feet3 – 9Delicate and thirsty. Despite its small size, it requires constant hydration and pruning

It is important when planting a dwarf weeping willow tree if not starting from a seed or a cutting, to remove any turfgrass and any weeds from the sapling, before planting.

Step 1: Dig a hole twice as deep and wide as the root ball of the tree and then place it in the center of the hole after removing any covering or container that it may have been purchased in.7
Step 2: Cover the root with fertilized soil but only fill the hole about halfway and then water thoroughly. Continue filling the hole completely, tamping down as you go to expel any air bubbles.
Step 3: Finish by watering thoroughly.

When transplanting into pots, the willow will still need to be situated where it can take advantage of the sunlight and watering will either have to be done manually or on a watering system to prevent drying out.

Pruning would also have to be done on a yearly basis to encourage fresh growth. And this is especially important if you decide to go for the even more diminutive bonsai tree.

Before planting your dwarf weeping tree into its new earthy home in your garden where it will get the most attention, be aware that diseases such as willow blight, fungi, mildew, and root rot can be common problems. As can pests.

Aphids, borers, and gypsy moths are just some of the pests that may well need to be targeted by spraying with pesticides.

Bonsai Dwarf Weeping Willow Tree (How To Care for a Bonsai Tree)

Nurturing a bonsai dwarf weeping willow tree takes patience but is well worth the effort.

They can be started from cuttings from another weeping willow tree by trimming off any foliage and placing it in a container of water for a few weeks.

As soon as the roots start to appear, the soon tree-to-be can then be placed into a small pot of soil. Regular watering is crucial as the bonsai tree grows quickly and absorbs nutrients from the soil at a hectic rate.

Due to this fast-growing ability, soil fertilizer needs to be added every six weeks during this growing season, and a special potting mix used to support the root system.

Alternatively, liquid fertilizer can also be used but that would have to be applied more frequently every two weeks.

Every two days pruning has to be done to maintain the desired shape and size and wiring can be carefully used to get that traditional look of cascading leaves as the leaves have a tendency to want to shoot upwards to a greater height.

Knowing when and how to trim a bonsai tree will help immensely in curbing the tree’s natural instinct to grow bigger. Trimming the leaves sparingly but the branches strategically allow the tree to photosynthesize light more effectively and grow more quickly.

This is known as structural pruning, a technique used to suppress growth and guide the bonsai dwarf weeping willow tree into the desired architectured shape.

Pruning will also apply to the roots themselves and has to be done every year when the bonsai is being repotted. If this isn’t done the roots could exert undue pressure on the pot and possibly crack it as they expand.

Also, if the roots are not carefully pruned, managing the size of the bonsai tree would be a near-impossible task. This is essential, can not-be-overlooked component of teasing the bonsai tree into the desired ornamental shape as the roots can become stunted, which in turn will stunt the growth of the tree.

That may sound like a solution to your problems, as the tree’s growth will stutter, but this will invariably affect the health of the bonsai.

Re-pot regularly, prune the roots and the branches often, and your bonsai weeping willow tree will be a source of wonder for years to come.

Types of Bonsai Trees

Apart from weeping willows, bonsai trees can be cultivated from almost any tree species, but some of them are easier to manage than others.

Choosing the right one will depend on how much time and effort you wish to dedicate to your new hobby, and which type of bonsai tree is suitable for your state.
