Wise Willow! We took cuttings from a mature willow that was being cut down and now have 3 willow trees growing on our small and mighty plot! Thanks for doing the GOOD work! Love you videos

My wife had curly stem willow in a flower arrangement from the store that started rooting. I put them in 1 gallon pots and left them next to the stairs. The two are now over twelve feet tall and still in the original pots. I am certain the roots just went right thru the bottom but they make for nice conversation trees. The stump is stretching the pot out a bit but it looks hilarious.

Great info!! I didn’t realise we could do this! My neighbours have a large willow that hangs over my fence, so I’ll be cutting some when it starts to grow again. My neighbours are easy going and have said we can cut whatever we want 🙂

As an herbalist for many years it hurts to see the leaves tossed aside. I realize they are good for mulch but they are wonderful medicinals as well. I really enjoyed this video and appreciate the information you provide.

Wow. Great permaculture tip. Thanks!

Goji berry cuttings that you sent are rooting and sprouting quite nicely, thanks!

I have several hybrid willow Austrees and I've had entire trees have their roots eaten by gophers. They root so easily that I can put cuttings or the trunk of smaller hybrids directly into pots, fish tank or pond and they start growing new roots within a couple days. Keeping the gophers out however is nearly impossible unless I put gopher wire baskets in the ground. I thought I could live with them but they keep decimating my plantings. Moringa's, Fruit trees, willow, bamboo. I feel like I'm living in Caddy shack sometimes.

I'm a brand new subscriber, just today, so I've only watched a couple of your videos so far. I've been looking around on KZfaq and YOURS is the BEST & EASIEST Instructional & Informative - so I'm sticking with you! So, I have a request. I'm very poor (& almost 60yr) & hoping to move soon to an apartment finally with a patio, but a very small patio. I would love to grow some of the healthiest foods & herbs in my little space (& maybe even indoors if possible without creating a forest - LOL). I looked around on YT & although there's a lot on vertical gardening, a lot of it is copycat info & not much of it is really useful for me (having to buy a lot of stuff or build stuff, or gardening from the ground [patio is 2nd floor] or growing in giant amounts, or having to keep enough gardening tools to fill a giant garage, etc). That's when I came across your SIMPLE Laundry Basket Tower video - and EUREKA! FINALLY Info that I CAN USE! I looked around on your channel & didn't see many other videos on vertical or tiny balcony gardening, so I was hoping for MORE. I would LOVE to see videos on the most nutritional, the best yield, the cheapest routes for the poor, the easiest routes for the old & the best vertical & container gardening for people that don't have room or ground to plant from. After years of gardening & knowledge, I'm CONFIDENT that you already have the answers & that you could zero in on these issues. More & more Baby Boomers moving into low-income apartment housing, so I think your following would Grow & Grow (pun intended) in this area of information! Thank you for considering this. P.S. I'm brand new to gardening (only years ago got to have lots of flowers, since then only apartment living), so 'newby' vids would be the best for me.

Awesome video. Thank you for sharing! Happy Friday.

Don't forget to use aloe vera as rooting hormones. I used for many cuttings. Great results.

Ohhh THANK YOU you and sweet ALLL my bc ruinous questions in this video!

Oh wow😮😊😊 pretty cool! I need to grow one now!!😊😊 GREAT share😊😊

Very educational. Thank you

Great information. Thank you.

New subscriber, like your videos.

Thanks for this video. Some willows do not propagate easily through cuttings. I (and several others) have had troubles growing Bebb's willow (Salix bebbiana) through this method. Bebb's willow is used for making diamond willow walking sticks.

Could I dunk fig cuttings in that solution for faster rooting?

Awesome tip. I had no idea!

Honey works well too!

Thank you I like your video very much

We have a few on our property! I'm excited to give this a try!

Nice might have to try this & find me some like this & try using it for headaches definitely should try it.

New here! Great tip

great idea

Good video

Sure cool information!

Maravilloso men. Thanks

So a globe willow and weeping willow work?

good information.

i chipped a willow into my garden as mulch once. all the chips started sprouting. not what i was expecting. ha!

thanks!!

Wow, I learned a lot! Any special kind of willow?

Very interesting, do you think the liquid is save on your skin? I've thrown out all commercial rooting hormones as I found them unsafe to use. This is a great idea.

I would have liked to see what you did with the cuttings, how they turned out. Is there a part 2? I have a little dappled willow, it is very striking; the problem is all chewing creatures think it is delicious! I have chicken wire around it, and blood meal on the ground, and spray it, and still they chew! Anything you can think of to help? It is so lovely, I'm trying to get some size on it, then I could try your rooting method. If you're not familiar with this variety, look it up, I'm sure you'll agree it is worth saving! Thanks and best wishes to you!

What type willow are you using? The purple willow (Sal is purposes) is the one noted for silicon content and only grows 8 to 10 feet. Some types of willow reach 50 feet. Help please - I live in zone 8a/b and go over100 ° F in summer with high humidity. Which one will grow and function where I live?

Do you sell cuttings of moringa tree? Please let me know... I live in the Bay Area. Thanks.

Can you freeze it for use later?

If the hormone continues to allow the willow fast root growth why don't we water our plants with willow water to encourage continued root growth?

How are all your fruit tree so short? I would like to grow more fruit trees but don’t want them overshadowing the rest of my garden.

There was once a very large, beautiful willow in my neighborhood. The homeowner chopped it down. 😳 I was sad to see it go.

finally, some one who knows what they are talking about!!!

Is it dangerous to plant within 50 feet of the house because of the pipes and sewage systems of the house?

Are the roots of the pussy willow (Salix discolor) invasive? I want to grow one about 7-10 feet away from my house but someone said I shouldn’t because the roots might be a danger to the house’s foundation.

What kind of willow tree are you growing?

Wish it was bad tasting to deer, mine had all it's young , tender branches devoured by deer. Now it's just a long stick 😐
