The foliage is the star of this plant.

✂️ Pruning for Colorful New Growth

Hakuro Nishiki responds well to appropriate pruning.

Because the most colorful foliage appears on fresh new growth, pruning established plants can encourage a denser shrub with an attractive flush of new leaves.

Allow newly planted rooted cuttings to establish before performing substantial pruning.

🍂 Important Dormancy Notice

DAPPLED WILLOW IS DECIDUOUS AND NATURALLY LOSES ITS LEAVES.

Depending on the season, your plant may arrive:

• Fully leafed
• Partially leafed
• Recently trimmed
• With changing fall foliage
• Dormant and completely leafless

A dormant rooted cutting can look dramatically different from a mature shrub photographed during its colorful spring growth.

🌱 Rooted Cutting Notice

YOU ARE PURCHASING A YOUNG ROOTED CUTTING — NOT THE LARGE MATURE SHRUB SHOWN IN LANDSCAPE PHOTOS.

Plants naturally vary in:

• Height
• Number of stems
• Leaf count
• Root development
• Pink coloration
• Amount of variegation
• Seasonal appearance

If possible, show an actual current rooted cutting beside a ruler so customers can clearly see the size they will receive.
