WOW ! I just received this beautiful dwarf Willow and I just planted her. She is super healthy, That is why I only buy my plants and seeds from your company. This dwarf was packed so perfect and shipping was right on time.Hard to believe that a plant from Oregon to South bend, IN. could arrive as if it was picked the same day. Simply amazing ! You should ssee my comfrey, mullein ( I have already divided them and have planted your seeds. Oh, and the bush beans were beautiful last year and were still producing into late October of 2022. They were delicious and we were never out of these bush beans. I cannot wait to see my 4 O’ Clocks grow this year. I mixed the colored ones with the white ones. I am so proud to be a owner of your beautiful plants and seeds. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I live in the city now, but my yard looks like an oasis in the country. I am so grateful to have found Strictly Medicinal ! Thank you Richo and family. Bless you all.

This little willow copes just fine with the heat. I grow it with no problem here in the Mojave desert, it grows from early spring all through the summer and into early fall. I keep mine in a huge plastic laundry tub with holes drilled in the bottom, under the dappled light of a mulberry tree and keep the soil constantly wet. The biggest problem is summer grasshoppers devouring the leaves (they love them even more than they do our local native Salix exigua) but it always recovers just fine.

I have ordered seeds, books, and this tree. Strictly Medicinal is a phenomenal company, so happy I found them! Hey Richo – I have a question about the tree; how far away from the house do you recommend planting? I have had it in a sunny window since it was delivered in December.
