Willow (Salix spp.) is one of the most interesting group of botanical specimens belonging to Genus Salix (derived from Celtic 'Sal' meaning near and 'lis' meaning water) and Order Malpighiales. The Salicate comprises about 350 species of trees and shrubs which are principally found in the northern hemisphere and extensively distributed in tropical, alpine, arctic and temperate climates.
