Pussy willow

English to Turkish Science Botany Salix
Greetings,

Please see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pussy_willow

In Iran it's eaten, for example in a kind of sugar desert known as noql (نقل):

I imagine that the scientific name is either Salix caprea or Salix cinerea.

Best wishes, and many thanks,

Simon

agree Kaan Yesilyurt : Genelde keçi söğüdü olarak geçiyor ancak "bodur söğüt" ve "püklü söğüt" de deniyor. Söğüdün dallarındaki tırtılımsı tüylü şeylere (puss) "pük" deniyor. Yani pussy = püklü.
