Salix 'Iceberg Alley' bees-bulbs-autumn beneath rosesSalix 'Iceberg Alley' is a compact deciduous willow with a cool, silvery presence, perfect for adding texture and light to modern borders. Its frosted, silvery green leaves have white undersides, creating a powdery effect that makes neighbouring greens look richer and brighter. In early spring, before the foliage fully unfurls, Salix 'Iceberg Alley' produces fuzzy silver catkins, each fringed with vibrant red stamens like tiny sparks against frost.
