Salix integra 'Hakuro-nishiki', commonly known as Dappled Willow or Flamingo Willow, is a distinctive deciduous shrub prized for its striking variegated foliage. The leaves emerge pink in spring, maturing to a mosaic of cream, pink, and green, providing a spectacular display, particularly effective in contrasting planting schemes. It typically grows 4-6 feet tall and wide but can be pruned to maintain a smaller size, making it a versatile option for many garden spaces.

Originating from Japan, 'Hakuro-nishiki' thrives in moist, well-drained soils and prefers a full sun to partial shade environment. While it is highly adaptable to different soil types, it performs best in acidic to neutral soils. Regular watering is essential, particularly in dry conditions, to maintain its lush appearance.

This Salix variety exhibits fast growth and requires regular pruning to encourage bushiness and to manage its size, making it an excellent choice for hedges or screens. The branches are flexible and are often used in basket weaving. Additionally, catkins appear before the leaves in early spring, adding to its ornamental value. It’s especially attractive to those desiring a unique, colorful, and easily manageable addition to their landscapes.
