Hi everyone Happy Ramzan to you all, I am new here and in fact its my first post.
So I have been watching Netflix's Marco Polo TV series and came across this beautiful garden where Kublai Khan spends his time, and his garden is amazing, I instantly fell in love with green tree (below in images marked with arrows), there is a pair of them in the garden, anyone can identify them? and where in Lahore or Pattoki it can be available...
Thanks a bunch in advance.

The tree has a sad name - weeping willow. Not sure if it grows in Pakistan. I may be wrong.

Re: Identify this tree from Marco Polo TV series
Hello and welcome.
These are one of my favorite trees. Weeping willows or "mazloom baid" I've just planted one last year. They're easily available at nurseries here in Rwp/isb.
They love to be planted near water and are a must in Japanese gardens. Just plant them away from the house structure or nearby underground water pipes as their roots can be quite invasive and damaging. In persian, we call it "beed e majnoon".

Hi. It's very young and not that impressive up until now. But, to be fair I just planted it last year so it still has a long way to go until it's full splendor. I've planted it on the outside corner of my street.
