My memory is like a sieve! Did I promise any willow to anyone and they haven't had them? :innocent:
None ready to cut just now but maybe more after summer.
-
Darn. I so thought this was going to be a poem.
Willow sticks
Have I forgotten you?
Promise in haste
Forget at leisure.
Alas, none are ready
Till summer sun
Has left its mark
and too soon vanished.
I shall have more
When Autumn comes
Shove them in earth
And they shall sprout.
sorry.

You have missed your vocation, David :roflanim:!!!

Do I get a hint of who the next Poet Laureate is going to be?

Let's hope not!!
Doganjo - do you know what variety your willow is? I'm wondering if it's any good for sheep to browse on in winter. (And would Zwartbles do that anyway, or is it just more primitive breeds?)
-
I'm afraid the variety is unknown (my fault as Annie got the original cuttings from me ;)) but it's fast growing and sheep should browse it happily :thumbsup:
-
Womble the way my zwartbles eat through hawthorn hedges they will love willow.

And it grows like stink
