Desert Willow (Chilopsis linearis) Plant Guide

Desert willow is considered to be unpalatable to livestock and low in palatability to wildlife. Mule deer eat small quantities of the leaves and fruit. Livestock generally do not browse the plant unless other forage is scarce. Tender sprouts following fire may be highly palatable to deer, bighorn sheep, and cottontail rabbits (Uchytil 1990). ................
