This listing includes one live Fall Willow Flower plant approximately 8–16 inches tall, ready for transplanting into the garden or a suitable outdoor container. Planting Season Best planted in: Spring or Fall Plant in spring after severe freezing conditions have passed or in fall while the soil is still workable. Fall Willow Flower is generally hardy in USDA Zones 3–9. The tree grows well in full sun to partial shade. Full sun generally encourages heavier flowering, while some afternoon shade can help maintain attractive foliage in warmer climates. How to Plant Fall Willow Flower Live Plant Choose a location receiving full sun to partial shade with enough room for the tree to develop its naturally rounded form. Plant in fertile, moist, well-drained soil. Fall Willow Flower adapts to loam, clay, and occasionally wet soils but performs best where prolonged drought is avoided. Dig a planting hole approximately twice as wide as the root ball but no deeper than the root system. Position the plant so the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil. Backfill gently, firm the soil lightly, and water thoroughly after planting. Apply approximately 2–3 inches of organic mulch around the root zone while keeping mulch several inches away from the trunk. If planting multiple trees, allow approximately 10–15 feet or more between plants depending on the desired mature landscape effect. Container growing is possible while the plant is young, but it should eventually be moved into a large container or planted in the landscape as it matures. How to Care for Fall Willow Flower Plants Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a strong root system. Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid prolonged standing water. Once established, water deeply during extended dry periods. Fall Willow Flower prefers consistent moisture and does not perform as well under prolonged drought stress. Apply mulch annually to conserve soil moisture, suppress weeds, and protect the root zone. Feed lightly with compost or a balanced tree and shrub fertilizer in early spring if additional nutrients are needed. Fall Willow Flower naturally develops an attractive rounded form and generally requires little pruning. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches as needed, preferably after flowering. The tree typically produces fragrant creamy-white flowers in May to June, depending on climate and growing conditions. Monitor occasionally for scale insects, borers, mites, leaf spots, or powdery mildew, particularly when plants are stressed. Maintaining proper watering and good growing conditions helps keep the tree healthy. With proper care, Fall Willow Flower develops into a long-lived ornamental tree that provides fragrant spring blooms, attractive green summer foliage, fall color, and valuable habitat for pollinators and birds.
