Salix babylonica
Later, Balcombe was offered a post in Australia and established a new estate called "The Briars" in the Carwoola area of New South Wales. On this new estate, it is believed that he was responsible for introducing two plants to Australia, the Sweet Briar ("Rosa rubiginosa") and the Weeping Willow ("Salix babylonica"). The willow grew nearby Napoleon's grave on St Helena and Balcombe is reported to have taken cuttings from these trees.
