Propagating Pussy Willows

Propagating  Pussy Willows

Propagating Pussy Willows from your current pussy willow bush, try propagating in early spring before they even start to show any sign of life.

Cut the branches in late winter before any sign of life.

Then place them indoors in water and watch the magic happen.
