Can you imagine a tub culture pasture? Really true, the huge deciduous tree also comes in a pot. However, the care required in terms of hibernation differs from that of its free-standing conspecifics. Read here what you need to consider.
Potted willows should be well protected from frost
Antifreeze measures
Actually, willows are hardy. The following measures are only required when keeping buckets:
- Be careful not to freeze the substrate.
- Nevertheless, water the pasture daily on frost-free days.
- Insulate the bucket with a burlap sack.
- Cover the soil with mulch (€239.00).
Don't bring pasture into the house
When kept in tubs, the temptation is great to simply overwinter the willow indoors. However, closed rooms are not good for the tree. Put the pot in a sheltered place outdoors.
