At The Greenhouse Nursery in Logan, UT, Dwarf Blue Arctic Willow is the kind of shrub we like for soft foliage texture that brings movement to the landscape. Plant it in full sun to partial shade. It is useful in spots that stay a little more moist than average. It works especially well in mixed shrub borders.
