Stamens 2 to a flower. Ovary tomentose with silky tomentum. Leaves 
mostly obovate, toothed, grey or hoary, more or less wrinkled ; very veiny 
beneath ; stipuled branches downy. — Plants trees or shrubs. The group 
includes the kinds of willow that are usually called the sallows. (Hook.) 
The sallows are known by their obovate or rounded downy leaves, and 
thick, early, silken catkins, with prominent, yellow, distinct stamens, 2 to 
a flower. (Smith Eng. Fl., iv. p. 216.) Not a few of the group Nigricantes 
Borrer also have been regarded as sallows. Mr. Borrer, however, states 
that he is unacquainted with many of the species, or supposed species, of 
this group, and of the group Nigricantes; and it is highly probable that 
many of them are placed wrongly. (Borrer in a letter.)
