Being intelligent is not a felony. But most societies evaluate it as at least a misdemeanor.

Robert A. Heinlein

Tricolor Willow

Salix integra 'Hakuro-nishiki'

This is the most amazing willow I've ever seen.

The new leaves come out pink. The pink bleaches out after a couple weeks, and turns, white, then mostly goes green with bits of variegation in it.

The effect from a distance is that the willow is covered with small pink birds.

I've got 10 growing in my field now, and will be striking cuttings this summer. Watch and see.
