End of the willow season

The willow season has come to an end again this year.  It has been rather later than in previous years as the weather has been so cold.  However, a few sunny days and the willow has sprung into life, with catkins, leaves and roots very much in evidence.


Anyone who has planted willow this winter will need to make sure that it gets plenty of water ....if we every get a prolonged period of dry weather that is.




We are hoping that we get a good growing season again this year, 2012 saw some amazing growth on the Osier, without perhaps quite so much rain!
