Brittany Green willow rods stay roughly the same thickness throughout their length. The name is a little misleading as the willow is predominately dark grey. A member of the Salix Purpurea variety, when dry, the top section of the willow turns a purple/dark brown.
The dark colour gives Brittany Green a rustic feel making it a great choice for weaving medieval or re-enactment baskets. Requires soaking and mellowing to make pliable.
