Hi, Shakir ji,

When was it flowering ?

Do you have any image showing the full tree?

It does not have distribution in your area as per POWO.

I think it may be Salix babylonica (Introduced) as per images and details herein and as per distribution in POWO.

All salix sp in kashmir valley have been introduced.

This sp. Is always confused with salix nigra.

According to Akhtar malik sir. This sp is Salix fragilis.

We don't have S.nigra in kashmir.

Salix babylonica is different from this sp.

Garg Ji, Salix x fragilis was introduced in cold desert regions in India about 150 years ago. I have clicked some photographs from Spiti (H.P.) in June 2022 tour. I'll share them soon.

After going through lots of literature on Salix flagilis to confirm the identity of my specimens, I came across this good paper which beautifully differentiates between two closely related species (S. fragilis and S. alba; both these species have been widely cultivated in cold desert region in H.P.).
