Living Willow Windbreak Hedging & Fencing/Screens
Living Willow Windbreak Hedges
Whether you’re planting a compact garden fedge or a sprawling 200-meter windbreak, we’re here to help you get growing. Here is everything you need to know about our willow, our kits, and how to get them off to a flying start.
What We Offer
-
Willow Cuttings & Rods: Either 3ft or 5ft long Salix viminalis unrooted stems.
-
Expert Instructions: Every order comes with clear, step-by-step guidance covering seasonal planting, exact spacing (usually about 25cm apart), and ongoing aftercare.
Planting & Seasonality
-
When to Plant: The golden rule of willow is that it loves the dormant season. Planting runs from late November through April.
-
How to Plant: The best part? No heavy digging required! Simply clear your existing grass or weeds, lay your membrane (if you're using one), push the slanted end of the cutting about 1 foot deep into damp soil, and firm it in gently with your heel.
Let’s Plan Your Project!

Living Willow Fedge Kits (Available from 2m in length upwards)
Create a beautiful, growing screen or boundary with a living willow fedge! Available starting from 2 metres in length, our Fedge Kits come with everything you need: high-quality rods, durable tying tube, and clear, step-by-step instructions to weave your own living fence.
Crafted using native willow (Salix viminalis), each kit supports local wildlife and pollinators while establishing a thick, green barrier that thickens and matures year after year.
Fedges are a fantastic, eco-friendly alternative to traditional timber fencing for garden borders, vegetable patch screens, and school grounds. They create lovely, natural boundaries for outdoor play areas, peaceful garden divides, and living windbreaks that soften with every season.
