The Salix Viminalis (Common Osier) Cuttings I bought from Yorkshire willow are excellent, I planted them about a month ago and they're already sprouting.

We recently received our 2500 cuttings for planting our new fedge/living structures. The service and communication provided is second to none and Yorkshire Willow have been so helpful with every step of the process.Our order was a little complicated as we needed to get the order to the South of France but nothing was too much trouble and responses to any query was super quick. Thank you for everything. Cannot recommend highly enough!

I'm looking forward to the new growth on my varieties of willow cuttings. The service and help were excellent and prompt. Also, the fact that you can buy single cuttings of different varieties is most useful and helpful. an excellent service, well-delivered.

The cuttings arrived by post and and were well packed and fresh. I had already prepared the area to plant them, so followed the enclosed instructions. They look fine and I look forward to seeing them begin to sprout in the Spring. I would use this supplier again.

Using this salix to help with flood defences along a small stream and in an ever increasingly boggy area where water runs off the fields (all year long now!). Although they have only just arrived with me, they are already putting down roots and are in bud. Efficient and friendly service.

Decided to choose this Salix because I needed hybrid vigor to speed up my phytoremediation experiment and am happy to say I have around 6 0.5cm internodes on some of the new growth from the meristems in just 2 and a half weeks (they are on top of heated mats inside the glasshouse). Ordered 200 and they have all rooted and shooted nicely, speedy delivery in the dispatch too, what more can I say, happy days
