90 percent of the nation’s cat-tail willow is grown in Samsefng-hiofng, Gilaan. The Chinese name for cat-tail willow, yinliu (銀柳), shares a similar pronunciation with yinliang, Chinese for “silver tael,” and is a symbol of good luck and fortune, which makes it a popular decoration for the Lunar New Year.
