- Genus Salix: Willows belong to the genus Salix, which includes a diverse group of plants, mainly shrubs and trees. They are known for their flexible branches, narrow leaves, and catkin flowers.
- Common Name - Heart-leaved Willow: The common name "heart-leaved willow" suggests that this particular species might have leaves with a shape resembling a heart. Leaf shapes can vary among willow species, and this characteristic contributes to the common names.
- Habitat: Willows, in general, are often found in moist to wet habitats, such as along riverbanks, streams, and wetlands. They are adapted to various soil types and are known for their ability to prevent soil erosion.
- Catkins: Like other willow species, heart-leaved willow is likely to produce catkins. Catkins are cylindrical clusters of flowers, and willows often have separate male and female catkins on the same plant (dioecious).

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Different plants have different watering needs. Check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about an inch into the soil. If it feels dry, water the plant until the water drains from the bottom of the pot. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
