'Argentea' is a select form of the Eurasian Creeping Willow, that lives up to its name. This low growing plant is cloaked in remarkable silvery foliage from spring until fall. It makes a striking addition to shrub borders, waterside gardens or other naturalised plantings. Like most willows, it is an early source of food for bees.
