Where did you find Pussywillows in Washington? Most places/people don't know what they are here. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi Katia - I buy my pussy willow branches every year in early March at the Philadelphia Flower Show. There are several vendors there that have fancy pussy willows - black, pink, tiny, fat, curly, etc.
ReplyDeleteI also see cut branches sold locally in the DC-area at florists and Whole Foods around Easter time (now).
The few gardeners in our region that grow pussy willows report that it can be an aggressive spreader so I do not recommend it for home gardens, unless you have the space to let it go.
