About

Salix eastwoodiae is a species of willow known by the common names mountain willow, Eastwood's willow, and Sierra willow. It was first described by Bebb in 1879 as Salix californica. This name was later found to be illegitimate, as Lesquereux had given the same name to a fossil willow in 1878.

It is native to California, Nevada, and the north-western United States. It grows in subalpine and alpine climates in mountain habitats such as talus and streambanks.
