Willow Fedges


Here is one of my 'Willow Fedges' recently planted and already showing catkins!
Have had a major clear out to open things up a bit both here in the back garden and around the apiary and have gone a bit mad with the Willow. I think it looks great though.
This Fedge is planted lattice style to recreate a permanent boundary fence/hedge between us and our neighbours. As it grows Ill trim it like any other hedge.
The bees willow is a bit different. It's two rows planted staggered which I hope to harvest useable willow from each year.
Will photograph the bees hedge later so that we can watch progress
