''[[Salix]] argophylla'', Nutt. (S. longifolia var. argophylla, Anders. S. fluviatilis var. argophylla, Sarg. S. Hindsiana, Benth.). Tree or large shrub, 12-18 ft. high, forming dense thickets but not growing in clumps: branches nearly glabrous and exceedingly tough: bark turning from brown to bright yellow or orange just before blooming, making a thicket of it a most conspicuous object: lvs. narrowly lanceolate, closely sessile, entirely or rarely minutely and remotely denticulate, clothed equally on both sides with an appressed silky pubescence, which more or less conceals the veins; stipules obsolete: scales oblong and obtuse in the staminate ament, narrower and more acute in the pistillate; lower half of the filament densely crispy hairy: caps. lanceolate, covered with straight appressed silky hairs, closely sessile; stigmas sessile; mature caps. often nearly glabrous.— Occasionally the lvs. remain upon the plant over winter, the young shoots appearing in their axils in spring. Ament surpassed in length by its leafy peduncles; appearing in May in Ore. and N. Calif. and flowering intermittently all summer. This species is distinguished by its narrowly lanceolate, entire lvs., obsolete stipules, small and rather narrow aments, erose scales, and hairy caps. S. argophylla occurs on the Pacific slope from S. Calif. to Brit. Col. It is a western representative of the long-lvd. willows. Not advertised, but a beautiful species common along streams and irrigation ditches.
