Courage has got to be harder, Heart the stouter; Spirit the sterner as our strength weakens, here lays our lord, cut to pieces, our best man in the dust. If anyone thinks of leaving this battle, he can howl forever.

Battle of Maldon

Belgian Red Willow

Salix fragilis 'Belgian Red'

This willow can be raised as a tree or as a shrub. Raised as a tree, it's one of our larger willows, getting up to 20 meters high.

Pruned close to ground it will coppice into a shrub. Stems can be harvested annually or bi-annually for basketry. New growth starts green, but turns red in the fall, generating winter interest.
