Origin of the Willow Cultivar

Salix L.

The origin of a willow cultivar represents the history of genotype development through selection from natural populations or targeted hybridization. This parameter serves as a marker for climatic adaptability and the intended use of the cultivar.

In the reference 10 varieties crop Willow, where this is mentioned in the description.

For willow, the concept of origin reflects the method of clone development: selecting the initial form from natural habitats in specific geographic locations or using hybridization between defined species. An important component is the affiliation with a specific scientific breeding school, which determines the specific characteristics of the material.

Knowledge of the origin allows an agronomist to predict the winter hardiness of the plant based on the climatic features of its region of development. Furthermore, the origin indicates the economic specialization of the cultivar, helping to select forms suitable for high-quality rod production, biomass production, or use in ornamental landscaping.
