Coral Snap™
(Hybrid Salix alba 'Britzensis')
This is an exciting, colorful new plant from our trials. The 1-2 year old stems
on this fast-grower are a graduating yellow orange red color late summer through
winter. It looses its leaves late fall to fully reveal its colorful branches. Coral
Snap™ is hardy and seedless in our trials so far and should grow to 20 ft.
or more tall with a width of 12 ft. or more. Coral Snap™ will grow in almost
any soil type except very dry. It will thrive best in a moist site with full sun.
In our trials, it has grown 12-14 ft. tall in 2 years. It is great for windbreaks
due to its dense branching. Plant at a 6 ft. spacing for a colorful screen.
Coral Snap™ at 16 months.
Coral Snap™ in winter color at 20 months.
