|discussion=<p>Hybrids:</p><!--
--><p><i>Salix caroliniana</i> forms natural hybrids with <i>S. nigra</i>. Hybrids with <i>S. amygdaloides</i> have been reported (N. M. Glatfelter 1898); no convincing specimens have been seen.</p><!--
--><p><i>Salix caroliniana</i> × <i>S. nigra</i>: This hybrid is characterized by stipes to 1.3 mm and leaves glaucous; it probably occurs wherever the two parents come into contact. In the southeastern United States, it occurs from northern Florida to West Virginia and Maryland with intergradation mainly on the Atlantic coastal plain from northern Florida and southern Georgia (G. W. Argus 1986). Reports (N. M. Glatfelter 1898) of it from the vicinity of St. Louis, Missouri, are unconfirmed.</p>
