Creating a living willow harlequin tree - Musgrove Willows 

Thank you for all the wonderful advice! I was disappointed not to see a finished tree after it is established.

FAB ! Such a lovely, educational and thorough example of such a delightful art form. Appreciated, thank you.

Absolutely LOVE your videos - so clear and precise, thank you 😍

I LOVE THIS!! Hello from Lake Charles Louisiana, America❤❤

Photo printing paper comes on tubes like that if you have a local photo store. It unravells when wet and is too solid to break up in pieces but perfect for short term seasonal structures. You could put clipped evergreens in the base or plant with irish moss or sedum and just leave the cardboard to decompose.

You are a good teacher

Love the toggle. Great idea.

I have never seen anything like this before, found it fascinating! Thank you for this beautifully made and presented instructional video!

I have a concrete container. Very large and heavy. Maybe 20”. And a fallen willow that I’ve been dreaming about propagating. The branches are half inch or so. And only five. I will do this in spring and hopefully grow an upright tree. The catkins are quite dark. Yayyy!! I subbed. Thank you so much!

Brilliant! 👏👏👏Thank you for sharing! 😊

I'd imagine the hoops being woven in would look nice. Like when you reached the height you want your hoop at, put every second rod into the hoop, the others out, then pull it down and continue weaving. Should hold it firmly in place so it won't drop down when drying out.

Is new growth on the way up to the top removed as it grows thanks

When using living willows for live harlequin trees, do you clean off all the buds that grow on the rod stems? or do you treat the stems (except the tops) before you start so the buds stop growing?

Toggles of loveliness lol

Yeah, but how does it look when in leaf?
