It is a deciduous shrub or small tree growing to 6 m (20 ft) tall. The leaves are alternate, 10–25 cm long and 7–12 cm broad, with an entire margin; they are green above, and glaucous below, with red veins and petiole. The flowers are produced in catkins in late spring after the new leaves appear; it is dioecious, with male and female catkins on separate plants. The male catkins are 10 cm long; the female catkins are 10 cm long at pollination, expanding to 25 cm long at seed maturity.[2][3]
The three varieties are:[2]
- S. m. var. magnifica
- S. m. var. apatela (C.K.Schneider) K.S.Hao
- S. m. var. ulotricha (C.K.Schneider) N.Chao
It is cultivated as an ornamental plant in western Europe for its bold foliage, with the largest leaves of any willow.[3]
