Plant List
Redstone Willow's Plant list
News:
Most of the willows planted in spring 2009 have done well. These will be replanted in the main, although we hope to have a few rods to weave with! Our willow withies are harvested November to March and are available as cuttings. We will be starting to cut the willows in December. Once that is done we will be updating this list with details of the new willows.
The following willow withies are available to buy as cuttings or in bundles for interior design or weaving:
