Sizing Details

What is caliper? This refers to the diameter of the tree trunk, commonly referenced in landscape plans or municipal requirements. However, it's not very descriptive to the average joe, right? We think of caliper as roughly the following size:

2" (12-14' tall minimum)

2.5" (14-16' minimum, thicker, fuller branching)

3" (16-18' minimum, even bigger canopy than the others)

3.5"+ (18' and over, with a fuller tree canopy as the size increases)

Mulch & Pine Straw Details

Top dressing a freshly planted tree can aid in moisture retention and weed prevention, not to mention it just looks more complete. Select an option here and our team will bring enough pine straw or hardwood mulch to fully top dress the planting location, giving the installation a fresh, finished look.

Our Take

We love the Weeping Willow for its beautiful, arching growth habit and its ability to thrive in damp, soggy soil to even standing water! Bright green leaves emerge in the spring quickly and remain until turning a golden yellow in the fall before dropping for winter. Fast growing!

Sun Exposure Requirements

Weeping Willow trees prefer full sun, but they can tolerate partial shade. They are hardy in USDA zones 3-8.

Rate of Growth

Weeping Willow trees grow rapidly, reaching heights of 40-50 feet and widths of 30-40 feet in just a few decades. They typically grow 3 feet per year in height and 2 feet per year in width.
