Salix alba 'Tristis Golden'
Choose Golden Weeping Willow if you have a large, wet area and want quick shade with a weeping shape. The tradeoff is space: keep it well away from buildings, pipes, septic areas, and tight lawns.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A | The weeping habit and golden stems make this tree a strong focal point on open ground. |
| Growth Rate | A+ | This is one of the faster ways to get shade and scale in a landscape. |
| Maintenance | C | Expect branch cleanup, leaf drop, and more management than a slower-growing shade tree. |
| Deer Resistance | C- | Deer readily browse and rub young trees like this, so protect it while it establishes where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | F | Its roots, canopy, and branch spread need far more room than most small yards can give. |
| Screening Value | B- | It can block views when leafed out, but it is not a tight evergreen screen. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend this only when the site is big and damp enough. If the planting spot is near hardscape, utilities, or septic, we would steer you to a different tree.

Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
