Despite these Biblical references to "willows", whether in Latin or English, the trees growing in Babylon along the Euphrates River in ancient Mesopotamia(modern Iraq) and named gharab in early Hebrew, are not willows (Salix) in either the modern or the classical sense, but the Euphrates poplar (Populus euphratica), with willow-like leaves on long, drooping shoots, in the related genus Populus.[7][8] Both Populus and Salix are in the plant family Salicaceae, the willow family.
These Babylonian trees are correctly called poplars, not willows, in the New International Version of the Bible (English, 1978):
By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept when we remembered Zion
There on the poplars we hung our harps.

The plaque commemorates the planting of willow cuttings from the grave of Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821) , the French Emperor.
Napoleon's Willow' is the name of a tree that grew on St. Helena's Island in the 19th century. Under it the Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte was buried. Parts of it were taken and brought all over the world and it became the key relic in a popular cult of Napoleon. The island of St. Helena is where Napoleon was exiled by the British - the ‘LITTLE ROCK AT WORLD’S END’ as he called it - from 15 October, 1815, until his death in May 1821. A weeping willow tree (a type of Salix babylonica), in Rupert Valley (Sempler Vale), became associated with Napoleon, because it was said that he used to sit under it during his exile. It was his special place for tranquillity and reflection, and he asked to be buried under its shade.

Interestingly, other parts of the surrounding land and water are named for the same piece of French history – we have Waterloo Bay as the surrounding water in that part of Moreton Bay, Wellington Point just to the South and Trafalgar St at Manly where the jetty stands.
