Widely planted and naturalized, the Salix babylonica originally comes from China. Its branches and leaves wave with wind present. Leaves following the changing seasons, colors modified during the fall. Lush branches house places for animals to have safety and protection from others. Only if it wasn't subject to pests and disease, the Salix babylonica is a great addition to Canada. Salix babylonica weeps towards the earth and hides a great treasure, protecting it from being stolen.
