There are good number of species of Salix in Kashmir (though not S. tetrasperma). This year I am visiting Kashmir in April mainly to capture these in flower. I don't know whether I would be able to catch the most spectacular of all the Salix caprea, the first species to flower in Kashmir as early as late February, producing most fragrant flowers, whose fragrance like Magnolia grandiflora can be felt from several metres. We used to keep twigs of this in flower in flower pots to give fragrance in the room for several days.

This season, you must to go to Mandya district(Karnataka) and watch
these blooms along streamsides and along the Vishveshwaraya canal or
around Nanjangud temple along the banks of the kaveri river.
Striking colours.Unmistakably Salix tetrasperma inflorescense.from 500
metres away you can make it out.
