Willow Purple “streamco” (salix pupurea)
Willow Purple “streamco” (salix pupurea)

Originally from Europe, this willow variety has attractive purple catkins in the spring. All willow varieties can be coppiced (repeatedly pruned) for basket making materials . The Streamco Willow is rich in analgesic properties due to its high salacin content. Willow bark was the traditional herbal predecessor to modern day aspirin and has been traditionally used for fevers, headaches and rheumatism. Can be pruned for a sustainable herbal harvest. Willow bark tea also makes a great rooting compound for soaking your cuttings before planting. Has a shrubby growth habit to 15 feet with multiple stems. Great for fencelines or borders. Prefers a creekside location, but will thrive anywhere with adequate moisture. Hardy to zone 3.

A Note about Shipping Rates:

We apologize for the slight increase in shipping rates, but the rise in fuel prices continues to affect all carriers and we believe that UPS is THE MOST dependable choice for delivering healthy plants as quickly as possible.

Occasionally, customers ask us about priority mail as a shipping option but due to our extremely rural location, our tiny post office is simply not equipped to handle our shipping volume and it has been our experience that USPS is simply not as dependable for prompt and safe plant delivery.

We ship well established, healthy plants and we want them to look that way when they arrive at your doorstep and we truly believe that fast, efficient shipping is a worthwhile investment toward this goal.

Rates:

Our customers East of the Rocky Mountains must use UPS 3 Day Delivery to guarantee the arrival of healthy plants.

Remember To Include A Physical Address For UPS Delivery. No PO Boxes.

Our shipping rates for 2008 for 6-12 PLANTS are as follows:

WEST COAST:(CA, OR, WA): UPS GROUND: $14.50

West of the Rockies: (NV, ID, MT, CO, AZ, NM, WY, UT): UPS GROUND $17.50

East of the Rockies (All Other States): UPS 3 DAY SELECT $29.50

Please remember the minimum order is 6 plants, in any combination (for larger orders of over 12 plants, check with us by email or phone and we will give you a shipping quote).

Our plants are shipped between Mid-March and Mid-November. We guarantee our plants will arrive in good condition and will ship them to you as quickly as possible to minimize any setback from travel.
