Willow planting

I have just been donated load of yellow willow by a local nursery.  I've chopped the branches up into 20cm lengths and planted them in the forest garden in various locations.  They will be useful in the future for basket making projects and/or fence weaving and sculptures.

I chopped the willow branches up into batons

 

 

Last years willow bed was planted
through landscape fabric and is
doing well

 

 



This years addition to the willow bed -
the batons are pushed into the earth and
will hopefully start sprouting soon
