Weeping trees are trees characterized by soft, limp twigs.[1] This characterization may lead to a bent crown and pendulous branches that can cascade to the ground. While weepyness occurs in nature, most weeping trees are cultivars.[1] Because of their shape, weeping trees are popular in landscaping; generally they need a lot of space and are solitary so that their effect is more pronounced.[2] There are over a hundred different types of weeping trees. Some trees, such as the cherry, have a variety of weeping cultivars. There are currently around 550[3] weeping cultivars in 75 different genera, although many have now disappeared from cultivation.[4]
