The Flamingo Dappled Willow (Salix integra 'Flamingo') is that rare landscape gem that brings a splash of "wow" to your yard without demanding all your free time. Reaching a manageable 6 to 8 feet in height and width, this shrub acts like a living piece of art, showcasing brilliant pink new growth in spring that fades into a cool, variegated white and green as the season progresses. To keep those colors popping, plant it where it can soak up full sun, though it appreciates a bit of afternoon shade in our hotter mountain climates. It is an exceptionally hardy choice for those struggling with local wildlife, as it is notably deer-resistant and stands up well to pesky critters. I recommend a heavy prune in late winter to encourage the most vibrant pink stems come springtime. It’s a fast-growing, elegant solution for privacy hedges or as a stunning focal point that breathes fresh life into any garden bed.
