How I cut the fresh willow with which I make my willow wreaths.

Yes I thought of Queen Camilla’s hat when I saw your wreath. Thanks for all the extra tips re willow and wildlife.

[@theflowerfarmer]

I never knew willow had color stems. The wreaths are naturally beautiful!

[@theflowerfarmer]

You are a kick! I would love to really buy you a coffee! I. Live In California but I visit the UK often. I will look you up next time I hop over the pond and see if you have a workshop. I've subscribed, Im delighted that I found your channel.

[@theflowerfarmer]

Ah Thankyou and hello California x

Hi Georgie how many willow whips do you get in your bundles? I do not have a damp area as I live on a slope at the bottom of a hill. I will have to try and recreate one, much as I did for my bog garden which I lined it with pond liner.

[@marthaduffy8386]

I have been watch your videos for a few months now and absolutely love them but just came across this one. I live in the US in the New England area and want to establish willows for wreath making. How many years old are your trees? I'm hoping to get a few curly willows going too to have for cut flower arranging too.

[@theflowerfarmer]

We start cropping lightly in their third winter but ours are much more established than that x

[@sallybourne4886]

I need a willow wood! Your wreaths are beautiful. But I’m frightened! A weeping willow in the garden of my parents’ house, planted by my father (who should have known better), grew to an enormous size and did a lot of damage to the foundations of the house and the drains. How close would it be “safe” to plant willow to a building? I have a damp area in my back garden I would like to use for willow.

[@theflowerfarmer]

Don’t put too close to house or drains and if patch damp they’ll do well - to be fair I wouldn’t tecomend planting any tree too close to house or drains - we pollard ours to keep them under control and they love it x

[@sallybourne4886]

@@theflowerfarmer thank you! I think they will be fine as I will keep cutting them, like the Eucalyptus gunnii I planted in my front garden. At the time I didn’t know that they can grow to 3m or more. They don’t stand a chance of that with me keep snipping at them! My children have strict instructions that when I pop off the eucalyptus are to be cut down or rooted out. I’ll just add the willow to that.

[@StinkyDustyBird]

There are other types that don’t get so large. Weeping is only one kind.

[@robot_6183]

Can I just replace my chrismas with a willow

[@theflowerfarmer]

Of course - I often do x

[@lauraschroeder8177]

The stupid paranoia California neighbors cut off tons of willow bushes because of fire Alarmists.

[@theflowerfarmer]

willow here is very useful stuff x
