Looking for ID guide

hi,
can anyone suggest a field guide to willows in BC? I live in the Peace Region and there's an abundance of willows. - thanks

 

Hello Mimmo

Willows
or
(PDF) A Guide to the identification of Salix (willows) in Alberta
might help?

 

thank you

 

Thanks, @pierrot. I have added the first link to our resource pages for Outdoor Gardening in the Pacific Northwest - Online and Written Resources and Pacific Northwest Native Plants Resources.

 

If you can find it, Catkin-Bearing Plants of British Columbia | Publications Shop | Royal BC Museum

 

@mimmo, let me know if you are not going to order this one:
Catkin Bearing Plants of British Columbia — Salt Creek Apothecary
I have no immediate interest, so would leave it for you, but there is suppoosedly one left. I would get if you do not.

 

that's very kind of you, but go ahead and get it if you like, as much as I would like to get a copy I'm also trying to downsize my book collection...as you likely can appreciate :)

 

Thanks, @mimmo. Someone else can have this. The book is $18.95, and shipping is $25.50, from WA. Not going through with it.

 

I just want to say that the Salt Creek place wrote to make sure that I knew that I had not completed my order, and when I mentioned that the shipping charge was the reason, offered a different shipping option for $14.50. That was more than I wanted to pay, but I was so impressed that I agreed, and the woman who wrote was very helpful in figuring out how to make it work on the system.

 

that's nice when people go out of their way to help, thanks for sharing
