Iceberg Alley Sageleaf Willow

Make a cool-toned splash with easy-care First Editions® Iceberg Alley® Sageleaf Willow. You'll love this rugged, rounded shrub as a silver-frosted accent. Wispy, silver-leaved Willow leaves are impossible to ignore. Their silvery-blue color may look frozen, but the leaves will shimmer and shake a flashing dance in your yard. Iceberg Alley is a special cultivar of a native plant. It was found in frigid Newfoundland and Labrador, and can handle any cold the United States might toss its way. Add a marvelous look to low-lying areas of your yard. Weave them into your mixed plantings as an exquisite iced layer of color. This tenacious plant sparkles in the springtime. On par with Pussy Willows' dramatic display, Iceberg Alley produces attractive catkins at the ends of branches. Trim a few of the upright branches for cut flower arrangements indoors. You'll love how the red stamens "pop" against the tiny yellow flowers. Honey bees appreciate their nectar, too. This is a wonderful plant to include near a Victory Garden if you want to bring those beneficial pollinators to visit your tomato plants and Cherry trees. In full foliage, Iceberg Alley Sageleaf Willow will stop you in your tracks with their icy color. Fuzzy leaves catch the sunlight and twinkle as they shift back and forth in the breeze. Add a marvelous sense of kinetic energy in your plantings. You'll be so pleased by both the sight and gentle sound of the wind moving through the dramatically striking foliage. Its dense and compact form makes it perfect for a specimen plant to add color to a small yard. It grows in damp soils, so can be a valuable wetland garden accent and used in Rain Gardens. Iceberg Alley Sageleaf Willow is the perfect ornamental addition for tough areas in your landscape. You can even grow them in containers to decorate your balcony!
