The following 11 cultivars were registered 20 July 2020 by Michael Dodge; Vermont Willow Nursery, VT (Vermont Willow Nursery, 2020).

‘Arnold Select’. A vigorous male clone of S. miyabeana Seemen. It is a large shrub that is ornamental in all seasons, colorful in winter, with showy male catkins in very early spring and attractive foliage all summer. Its coppiced stems are unusually dark red-brown, whereas other selections of this species have bright green coppiced stems. This cultivar is suitable for living structures, hedges, shelter belts, and coarse basketry. ‘Arnold Select’ is hardy to at least USDA Zone 4. Dodge received this plant from the Arnold Arboretum in Boston, MA.

‘Bronze Beauty’. A female clone of S. myricoides Muhl., or possibly a hybrid of this species, suitable for gardens. It is more vigorous than the species and has larger bronze-colored new leaves. ‘Bronze Beauty’ was discovered by Dodge as a branch sport on a plant from Wisconsin, and it was propagated in 2014.

‘Filigree’. A male clone of S. interior Rowlee, distinguished by very long and slender green foliage. This selection is very ornamental and can be used for basketry, phytoremediation, and erosion control because it spreads widely by underground stems. It is hardy to USDA Zone 3. Dodge discovered this plant near a pathway in Tennessee in 2016.

‘George Newman’. A female clone of S. candida Flüggé ex Willd. distinguished by a compact crown and densely pubescent, almost white, foliage. ‘George Newman’ is suitable for small gardens. It is hardy to USDA Zone 2. Etymology: It is named in recognition of George Newman, a native plant collector from Bedford, NH, who discovered this plant in Newfoundland, Canada.

‘Oberli’. A vigorous male clone, which is probably the only male clone of S. babylonica L. introduced to Europe and the United States. It is hardy to USDA Zone 4–5. Etymology: Dodge procured this plant from Walter Buechler, ID, and named it in recognition of Heinz Oberli, a Swiss salicologist, who collected cuttings of this plant from the Langtang Valley in Nepal at 3450 m of elevation in 1974.

‘Pink Delight’. A male hybrid clone of S. ‘Americana’ × S. eleagnos Scop. ‘Angustifolia’. ‘Pink Delight’ is similar to S. eleagnos ‘Angustifolia’ but is more vigorous, with long, straight, red stems and reddish unfolding foliage; these traits were inherited from S. ‘Americana’. Dodge received this plant from the Chicago Botanic Garden, which in turn procured it from Czechoslovakia.

‘River Cloud’. A female cultivar, listed as a selection of S. ×fragilis L., ‘River Cloud’ is similar to ‘Bullata’, but it has a single trunk and a cloud-shaped, rather than dome-shaped, crown. ‘River Cloud’ is suitable for coarse basketry and as an ornamental tree. It is hardy to USDA Zone 4. It was discovered by Dodge near the Susquehanna River in New York State, in 2014.

‘Vermont Red’. An ornamental female clone of S. purpurea L. with slender dark red stems. It was discovered in Plainfield, VT, in 2010 by the state botanist and cultivated in the USDA Plant Materials Center in Big Flats, NY. This cultivar is hardy to USDA Zone 3. It can be used for ornamental purposes and fine basketry.

‘Violet Beauty’. A vigorous female clone of S. irrorata Andersson with deep violet stems, covered with white bloom, and bright red buds and leaf petioles. Dodge received this plant from the Chicago Botanic Garden and named it in 2016. It is suitable for gardening, living structures, and basketry.

‘Winter Glory’. A vigorous male clone of S. ×leucopithecia Kimura with upright arching stems and large red buds. The fully expanded catkins, which reach up to 5 to 8 cm long, are very ornamental and are frequently used for floral cut-stems. Original plants were procured from Spring Meadow Nursery in Michigan as S. chaenomeloides Kimura (Kuzovkina et al., 2016). It is hardy to USDA Zone 4.

‘Winter Green’. A vigorous male clone of S. miyabeana Seemen with bright green stems. Dodge received this plant from a basket grower; it is likely that the plant originated at the willow breeding program at the University of Toronto, Canada. It is one of the best selections for basketry, living fences, and structures.

The following two cultivars were registered 15 July 2020 by Yulia Kuzovkina; University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT.

‘Alexander’. A male hybrid of S. rosmarinifolia L. × S. viminalis L. developed by Vladimir Sukachev in Russia during the 1930s. It is a shrub with a dense crown, thin stems, and bright buds. ‘Alexander’ is very ornamental in spring, when covered with abundant golden catkins. Etymology: It is named in recognition of Alexander Marchenko, a Russian salicologist who preserved this plant in his garden.

‘Rabbit’s Foot’. A vigorous male clone of S. ×leucopithecia Kimura. Its large catkins have aberrations in the form of lumps, which resemble a rabbit’s foot in size and structure. Original plants were procured from Klyn Nurseries, OH, in 1999, as S. chaenomeloides Kimura (Kuzovkina et al., 2016).

The following 13 cultivars were registered 4 Dec. 2018, by Alexander M. Marchenko; Water Plants Nursery, Pushkino, Moscow region, Russia. The crosses of these cold-hardy ornamental hybrids were made by Veniamin I. Shaburov in Yekaterinburg, Russia, in the 1960s and 1970s, and described by Marchenko (2017, 2019).
