Is This the Most Useful Plant on EARTH?
Willow is such an incredibly useful plant, and in this video we explore the details of willow fencing, basket weaving, and ecological restoration using this glorius species! COMMON QUESTIONS ANSWERED: Where is this located?: The Willamette Valley of Western Oregon. Zone 8a. Rainfall ~42" per yr. What varieties of willow do you recommend?: (From Kara)"In the video you see: Salix alba vitellina, Salix purpurea, Salix daphnoides, and Salix fragilis (various varieties of each). Streambank stabilization is done with native willows (Salix scouleriana and Salix lasiandra in western Oregon). But also, people should look at for specific uses of willows. There really is more to learn than can be communicated in this one video!" Sorry, we didn't know Willow is considered invasive in Australia!
