Salix lucida, the shining willow, Pacific willow, red willow, or whiplash willow, is a species of willow native to northern and western North America, occurring in wetland habitats.[2][3][4] It is the largest willow found in British Columbia.[5]

It is a deciduous large shrub or small tree growing to 4–15 metres (13–49 ft) tall.[5] The shoots are greenish-brown to grey-brown. The leaves are narrow elliptic to lanceolate, 4–17 centimetres (1+126+12 in) long and 1–3.5 cm (121+12 in) broad, glossy dark green above, usually glaucous green below, hairless or thinly hairy. The flowers are yellow catkins 1–9 cm (123+12 in) long, produced in late spring after the leaves emerge.[3][4][6]
