Chelsea Flower Show

We have been watching the Chelsea Flower Show on Brit Box.  One of the things I thoroughly enjoyed was a vendor from Denmark with his willow you can visit the site here.

Imagine my surprise while at Home Depot, there were some similar ones.  I had to pick one up.

I potted it up in a tub.


I will keep it in the pot over winter in the garage for this year.  I am thinking that as they survive in Denmark they should be okay here in our 5b zone.

Really interested to read about your willow. This UK site has excellent advice about caring for them https://thewovenwillow.co.uk/plantingguide. Yours looks lovely, what a talking point!

I've never seen one of those before and will be interested in hearing how well it does.

Looks lovely there. I may have to investigate there.

An Innisfil fan of yours btw.

I would definitely think that willow would survive in your area. I love how it has been braided.
Across the street there are two weeping willows, which according to all written pages are not supposed to survive in our Zone 3, but have been doing wonderfully for many years.


God bless.
