Curly (Corkscrew) Willow Source?

[Ruth52]

Does anyone have a good source for Curly Willow...preferably one that doesn't charge an arm and a leg for shipping!! Anymore, it costs more for the shipping than for the tree! Also anyone who has had experience using it in cut flower boquets for a local farmers market? If you use it...do you just use the bare branch...or with the leaves on it? Thanks.

Check ebay. There's a seller there advertising 20" willow saplings for $15 with free shipping.

Here's a picture of some curly willow branch centerpieces, seem to be without leaves:

u can try growing it from seeds ..its kinda expensive too..I just got 3 seeds from hirt for 7$ ..and I havent sown them yet...but I heard they germinate and grow really well and fat n they would bloom for u by late summer or autumn maybe earlier if u start earlier.. I guess shipping huge plants will always cost u..I will let u know if I passed by any , I really adore this plant n I keep googling abt it
