Many of the willows we grow here are suitable for Basketry. We also supply Living Willow rods.

Please note all rod numbers are approximate. Weather and soil conditions can affect the productivity of a willow bed during the growing season. This can in turn affect the thickness and diameter of the rods.

* If you are looking for willow for LANTERN MAKING please go to our buff willow section and choose the buff willow of your required length or a mixed bundle. *
