Thank you, it is very colorful and EASY to grow - especially if you trim it regularly. If you haven't already, might I suggest that you follow our UA-cam channel so that our new videos will pop up in your feed as we add them? And if you click the “like” button on any particular video it will help other UA-camrs find it too in the future.
The Flamingo Dappled Willow is a must have. We moved into a home that had the Flamingo dappled willow on the side. It is now 6 feet around, I need to prune it regularly. It is just stunning. Very little water requirements, tolerates crap soil. Just this month I decided to take some branch cuttings and will try to propagate it for my own use.
Thanks for your kind comment. We agree, i t is a very eye-catching easy to grow plant - especially if you have heavy or dampish soils. Regular pruning, is important. That will help to keep it shorter, more compact and even more attractive. Thanks for filling us in on your progress. Have you subscribed to our channel?

Yes, very colorful and easy to grow too! We will be shipping a new crop (just like this) later this spring, so check in with your local garden centers to see them for yourself: grownbyoverdevest.com/retail-locator/
I love your plants. I wanna buy some for my landscaping. I recently purchased my home and my neighbors been pressing me about doing my lawn to match theirs. I'm creative and think outside the box. So I refuse to do the uniformed format like everyone else.
When someone creates a garden it often reflects the personality of the person who creates and looks after it. Over the years, I’ve seen lots of ways that gardens show this…. i.e. Engineer’s garden where everything is neat and symmetrical, Native garden with a naturalistic approach, Cottage garden with a romantic, old fashioned layout etc. etc. Also because most of us have our favorite colors - I’ve seen many that are predominantly planted with particular colors themes - Hot reds & oranges, Sophisticated whites, Lively yellows, Cool blues etc. Just remember that the outside of your home is the part that is “on show” all the time to everyone that passes by…. So, now when I and everyone else (whether they realize it or not) look at someone’s garden, they are inadvertently forming an opinion of the people who live there - just like deciding which clothes we wear each day - our garden says a lot about who we are and what we are like! There's hundreds of great garden centers across our region that carry our plants and can help you with practical tips and suggestions. Good luck with your exciting project.
Within reason the larger the better! Our bushy and instant effect plants are grown in 3 Gal. pots, so at the very least they would need pots twice the size of these. Of course, you can always "up-pot" them into larger sizes in subsequent years.
Hi David. I planted 2 shrub form 3 yrs ago. They have almost out grown their spot. By coppicing to the ground next spring I can control the size? I don’t want it 8-10’ tall. I just want to keep it at 4-5’ instead.
That's exactly what you can do, and then even give them secondary trims several times during the growing season. The more you trim, the bushier they will be. I have seen several that have been held at the sizes you mention.
It is best to identify what the pest (or beneficial) insects are, so you could consider getting in touch with your local extension office or asking local master gardeners or garden coaches in your area. Then a plan of action can be devised. Your local garden center may also be able to help: grownbyoverdevest.com/retail-locator/ and there are some very good self diagnosis websites offered by some of the universities that are very good resources too. Here's an example form the University of Minnesota: apps.extension.umn.edu/garden/diagnose/insect/garden/
Absolutely, they show the best color in sunny open conditions. The only thing to bear in mind is that Its a willow, so moisture at its roots is important. At planting time be sure to incorporate plenty of organic matter (compost planting soil etc.) & water well, specially during any dry spells.

I just planted 3 or these 2 days ago. Two are fine today but one of them is shriveling (for lack of a better word) up. What is going on? I just spent a fortune on these! Please anyone respond!
Willows LOVE moisture , and it sounds like maybe this one has somehow got dry. The important thing to do is water them well (especially this one), they are so "thirsty" that (unlike some other sorts of plants) it is almost impossible to over do it! If the plant was mine, I would clip back the dried out (shriveled growth), make a little depression (reservoir) around the planting spot, fill it with water and let it soak in..... Then do that regularly (except for wet days) until you see new shoots coming again. Here's a link to one of our videos, that will explain: ua-cam.com/video/xybT3obydPw/v-deo.html
Because of the variegation, it is not as vigorous as some sorts of willow. But, it would still be wise to keep it away from any underground water pipes or drainage systems.
I saw these in a small town near me. It was literally the most beautiful plant I have ever seen ❣️ I want some for a beautiful living privacy screen along the creek we live on!
Bought 4…3ft tall..beautiful….but 1 is Losing its leaves, as if it is dying or heat exhaustion. The other three are fine. They all get watered the same and buried in the same soil. What is going on anyone know
Pam, it is fairly fast growing but it still takes us about 3 years to produce our plants. Of course, we go to quite a bit of trouble to trim and manicure our plants, so that they are extra bushy, well rooted and well shaped, and ready to make a quick and healthy transition to their new sites in everyone's gardens.
You can air layer a big branch in literally 2 weeks. Now to get it bushy and nice it will take longer obviously, but these things are stupid easy to propagate
Should you be interested, it was introduced by Peter Bonetekoe, a nurseryman in Boskoop, The Netherlands that specialized in the cultivation of willows. He selected it in 1996 as a whole plant mutation - he believed it was more upright, had smaller leaves, thicker stems and didn't burn in the sun as readily as its parent Salix Hakuro Nishiki. As we mention in the video, we don't see much difference, except of course the name "flamingo" is easier to pronounce and remember! 😉💚

I have just brought four flemingo trees what size pots should I plant them in please

What do I use for the black bug pests I have on them in my garden .

Will this do well in late afternoon sun? The area i want to plant them is in the sun around 1pm And i live in 6b zone.

Thanks for your reply. I am subscribed and I will do that when I plant them

@@OverdevestNurseries Thank you for this reply. I'm working on it!
Are the roots of this invasive to water pipes?
Because of the variegation, it is not as vigorous as some sorts of willow. But, it would still be wise to keep it away from any underground water pipes or drainage systems.
Loved your plants! Could you please let me the growing zone:)
This Salix variety is hardy to USDA 4 (which is anywhere within our Mid-Atlantic and NE USA region)
I saw these in a small town near me. It was literally the most beautiful plant I have ever seen ❣️ I want some for a beautiful living privacy screen along the creek we live on!
Bought 4…3ft tall..beautiful….but 1 is Losing its leaves, as if it is dying or heat exhaustion. The other three are fine. They all get watered the same and buried in the same soil. What is going on anyone know
Sounds like there's an issue at its roots in that spot.
Regular watering is important until it recovers and gets established in its new home.
I have some from last year! How long does it take to propogate them from a cutting?
Pam, it is fairly fast growing but it still takes us about 3 years to produce our plants. Of course, we go to quite a bit of trouble to trim and manicure our plants, so that they are extra bushy, well rooted and well shaped, and ready to make a quick and healthy transition to their new sites in everyone's gardens.
@@OverdevestNurseries Awesome, thank you for this!

Salix Hakuro Nishiki... no idea where "flamingo" came from.
Should you be interested, it was introduced by Peter Bonetekoe, a nurseryman in Boskoop, The Netherlands that specialized in the cultivation of willows. He selected it in 1996 as a whole plant mutation - he believed it was more upright, had smaller leaves, thicker stems and didn't burn in the sun as readily as its parent Salix Hakuro Nishiki.
