Description

Salix denticulata can reach a height of 6 m (20 ft). The shoots are downy when young. The dull green leaves are paler underneath, obovate, lanceolate or elliptic, with toothed margins, 3.5 by 1.2 to 2.2 centimetres (1.38 by 0.47 to 0.87 in) long, with very short petioles.

The flowers bloom in April and May.[2]
