This small weeper is best suited as an ornamental in small gardens. It’s one of the few willows we offer that travel along above the ground. Michael trained ours up to an eye-catching 5 ft. Given the proper care this willow is sure to please as ground cover or a centerpiece to a small backyard escape. Since it can be contained and trained easily, it would also do well as shade in an animal run. Not recommended for browsing herbivores. In an ironic twist, goats might be a bit too voracious for ‘Pendula Kilmarnock’.
