Planting & Care

Despite its sorrowful association, the 'Kilmarnock' willow brings joy and elegance to any space.
Features soft, fluffy catkins in early spring, followed by vibrant green leaves on gracefully drooping branches.
Discovered on a Scottish riverbank, it thrives in damp soil, making it perfect for wetter parts of the garden or near ponds.
A hardy, low-maintenance tree that reaches a compact height of around 2.5m, ideal for patios and small gardens.
Recognised by the Royal Horticultural Society as a 'Plant for Pollinators', attracting bees and other beneficial insects.
Its signature weeping habit develops beautifully as the tree matures.

Feeding: We have fed the plant for its first season. You may wish to sprinkle a little fertiliser around the base when planting, depending on the season.
