Heartleaf willow grows best in a moist soil and is suitable for wetland edges, riverbanks, or for erosion control. Not normally used for gardens. The plant's extensive root system make it effective at binding the soil along the sides of streams.
The stems can be used for basket making.
The common name is misleading; very few of the leaves are heart-shaped.
