Willow Stakes & Rods
Stakes and Rods for Special Projects
Why Buy Stakes or Rods?
When planting in areas that aren’t easily accessible to irrigation, or that may have more weed and grass competition than in cultivated areas, longer stakes give your willow planting a better chance to survive and thrive. Stakes are also preferable for erosion control projects, as there’s more area available for the early root growth that will give stability to the stream bank.
When planting a woven living willow structure, such as a fence, tunnel, or hut, long rods are needed to avoid branching at ground level. Planting short cuttings will result in a hedge, rather than a weavable fence.
The varieties listed here are those of which we have ample supply and are pretty all-purpose. If you have a special project in mind, or want stakes or rods of a variety that you don’t see listed, please contact us. We may very well be able to provide what you’re looking for on a custom basis.
