Pink pussy willow: gracilistlya 'Mt Aso'
See http://www.willowsvermont.com/order-form.html
From "A Way to Garden:" And then there is the pink pussy willow. ‘Mt. Aso’ is by far the most popular willow I sell; I sell hundreds of that. The buds start developing in July and August, so you have these pink buds all winter, and you can have them flowering for Valentine’s Day. Just bring them indoors three days before, and they will be in flower for Valentine’s Day.
