Many people are able to identify a willow tree, with its long branches that float with the wind. It is often thought of as a symbol of flexibility, which is interesting since it is often used to help maintain healthy joints* which supports flexibility*. Willow trees are native to many parts of the world, including North America, Europe and Asia. There are many varieties of willow, including the distinctive weeping willow (Salix babylonica), white willow/European willow (Salix alba), and black willow/pussy willow (Salix nigra).
