Scouler's Willow
Salix scouleriana
The photo above shows Scouler's willow as seen at about 4100' at a DNR rock
quarry at the southeastern corner of Mt. Adams............June 12, 2005.
Seen at a number of drier sites on the south and southeastern
sides of Mt. Adams, this species can develop a fairly thick trunk and attain
heights of 20' and more. I have yet to see any of this species flower
this season.
