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.

Very dedicated and professional. We are happy with the way they planted 14 trees for us. 11 green giants, 2 white pines and 1 Norway spruce.
Picked up my plants-ostrich ferns and blue ice amsonia without any problems! Wonderful, responsive owners! Will be buying from them in the future!
Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
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!
