Flowers There are 1-3 catkins often located together. Catkins are long and slender and loosely flowered. The scales are yellow, deciduous, and thinly pubescent. On male plants there are two stamens. On female plants stigmas are short and nearly sessile. (Peattie, 1930) Flowers may be yellow, green, or brown. (NPIN, 2007)
Fruit capsules are narrowly conic. (Peattie, 1930) Capsules are brown. (NPIN, 2007)
Leaves are smooth, narrow, and slightly toothed. There is a shallowly scalloped space between the short teeth. (Weatherbee, 2006) There are no stipules. Young leaves are thinly villous (pubescent with long and soft hairs that are not interwoven). Mature leaves are linear to elliptical and glabrous (hairless) beneath. Mature leaves have an acute base, a tip that is barely acute, and margins that are remotely denticulate (toothed). (Peattie, 1930) No other willow has such extremely long leaves in proportion to their breadth - 16 to 18 times as long as broad. There is consequently little shade under a sandbar willow. (NPIN, 2007)
Stems are numerous. Twigs are smooth and reddish brown. (Peattie, 1930)
Plant is 1.5-5.5 m tall. (Peattie, 1930)
Leaves 5-12 cm (2-4 3/4") long x 5-15 mm (1/8-5/8") wide. (Weatherbee, 2006)
