Georeference protocol: Lat/lon determined by GPS
Habitat: Wild Habitat
Environment description: High-qulity fen, remnant.
Number of plants sampled: 100
Associated species: Salix discolor, Salix humilis, Carex sp., Cornus sericea and Onoclea sensibilis.
Aspect: Northeast; Slope: 5
Comment: Likely 500+ genets throughout a 3 acre area, perhaps more in adjacent area not explored. One specimen noted to 4' in height. Vouchers were collected 19 April and 17 May approximately 5-7 days from peak flowering and 10-12 days from peak fruiting, respectively. In comparison to local Salix discolor, S. candida flowered and fruited circa 10-12 days after S. discolor. During grow out of original seed collected in 2019, majority of seedlings demonstrate hybrid characteristics indicating presence of hybridization occurring in nature.

Narrative
Plants averaging 2.0' in height with little to no branching (e.g. estimated 1-3 ramets per genet which are difficult to separate/distinguish due to the clonal nature of the species). Pubescent stems mostly near apical ends. This petite, shrubby willow is essentially restricted to cold bogs/fen communities and is rare in Iowa (Nekola 1990). It is easily recognized by its narrowly and extremely pubescent leaves. Salix candida was considered extirpated from Iowa by Spence (1959) and Roosa and Eilers (1978). Since discovery of eastern Iowa fen communities in 1984 it has been observed extant at 26 sites (Nekola 1988) and is tracked as a species of special concern by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources Natural Areas Inventory (2021).
