Coordinates: 42.4826, -93.6255 (Map it)
Elevation: 372m.
Georeference protocol: Lat/lon determined by GPS
Habitat: Wild Habitat
Environment description: Very unique and biologically diverse area. Nicollet loam soil (1 to 3% slope), slightly acid loam soil (somewhat poorly drained), Canisteo silty clay loam soil (0 to 2% slope), and moderately alkaline silty clay loam soil (poorly drained). Both wetland and upland prairie species nearby
Number of plants sampled: 8
Associated species: Amorpha canescens, Asclepias tuberosa, Echinacea pallida, Stachys pilosa, Spiraea alba, Phlox pilosa, Schizachyrium scoparium, Asparagus officinalis, Eryngium yuccifolium, Dalea purpurea, Artemisia ludoviciana, Zizia aurea and Silphium laciniatum
Comment: Originally acquired via seed collection of Salix humilis Ames 32385. During regeneration, seedlings grown from Ames 32385 seed lot of Salix humlis showed signs of hybrid origin and thus selected for separation.

Narrative
Originally acquired in nature via intential sampling of Salix humilis (Ames 32385). Specimens sampled averaged 0.9 meters in height. Tallest of four specimens was 1.5 meters in height. Progeny grown from original seed collected in nature (17 May 2019) when grown in cultivation (NCRPIS - Ames, Iowa) showed substantial variation in leaf morphology. Out of 50 seedlings, seven specimens assumed to be hybrids (Salix x conifera) were selected to represent this accession. Growth habit appears to be relatively uniform: short plants (e.g. less than 6-8'), multi-branched shrubs with branching occurring near the base. Stems and petioles pubescent; adaxial and abaxial surfaces of leaves very sparsely pubescent but mid-veins relatively pubescent. Stipules present and persistent. Abaxial surfaces slightly whitish, while adaxial surfaces are slightly glossy and dark green in color. These hybrids are likely sterile; two attempts at controlled pollination failed to produce seed.
