Salix pierotii
Korean willow is a shrub or small tree from northeast Asia, reaching about 8 m, grown mainly for hedging and property boundaries. It needs moist soil and full sun, and is easy to root from cuttings.
Salix pierotii, the Korean willow, is a species of willow native to northeast China, far eastern Russia, the Korean peninsula and Japan. They are shrubs or trees reaching 8 m (26 ft). Because their twisted wood is not good for timber or making tools, in Japan Salix pierotii trees are used to demarcate property lines between farms.
