Pussy willows are species of willow (genus Salix) that have characteristically furry clusters (catkins) of young flowers.The furry appearance is at its best shortly after the buds open, and in some countries the opening of pussy willow buds is taken to signify the arrival of spring.In Europe, the main species with this name are Salix caprea and S. cinerea. In North America pussy willow is S. discolor.
Weeping Willows belong to the tree family. Pussy Willows are not trees, they are simply plants. Weeping willows are the pendulous members of the Salix family. Pussy willows are the name for the flowers of the willow.
Pussy willows do not come from the weeping willow tree. It comes from Salix discolor, or the American pussy willow.
The French word for pussy willow tree is "saule."

You Really Dont Need To Know!
If you cut it down, you'll never know.
Willows (genus Salix) are known for producing catkins, which are elongated flower clusters that appear before the leaves in spring. Common species that produce catkins include the weeping willow (Salix babylonica), black willow (Salix nigra), and pussy willow (Salix discolor). These catkins can be male or female, depending on the plant, and are an important source of pollen for early pollinators.
Weeping Pussy Willows can grow to be 40 feet high. Pussy willows don't grow much more than 5 feet.
It isn't a flower, it's a tree. Called the "Pussy-Willow"
