Salix daphnoides, commonly known as the European violet willow or the purple osier, is a deciduous shrub or small tree. It typically reaches a height of 4-6 meters. This species is known for its distinctive purplish stems covered with a waxy bloom, and its narrow, lanceolate leaves. The leaves are dark green above and bluish-green below. Salix daphnoides produces catkins in early spring, with male and female catkins appearing on separate plants. It is often found in moist, well-drained soils along rivers and streams, primarily in Europe and parts of Asia.
