Flowering Period
This deciduous tree, sometimes known as the Twisted Willow or Corkscrew Willow, is notable for its unusually distorted growth tendencies. Salix babylonica 'Tortuosa' is a fast-growing tree that generates growth that twists and rotates like a corkscrew for no apparent reason, and the leaves follow suit. Yellow catkins occur on the bare branches in the spring before the vivid green foliage appears. It's preferable to take out older wood from the center of a hedge to allow growth to sprout, which will keep things interesting. Height: 12m (39'). Spread: 8m (13'). Planting Distance: 50cm (20") (3 plants per metre for a single line hedge). Twisted willow, also known as the Corkscrew Willow, is a deciduous tree known for its bizarre, contorted growing habit. Salix babylonica 'Tortuosa' grows quickly, producing stems that twist and turn like a corkscrew - even the leaves do the same! Yellow catkins appear on bare branches in spring, with bright green foliage following on. For hedging, it is best to cut out older wood from the centre, allowing new growth to appear and maintain interest. Height: 12m (39'). Spread: 8m (13'). Planting Distance: 60cm (24") Plant Willow in moist soil that is also well drained. When initially planting, ensure plenty of compost or organic matter is incorporated into the planting hole to give the plant the best possible start.

Live Plants

Dobies strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

Prices include VAT where applicable.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.

We reserve the right to revise any carriage charges in the event of carrier price increase or other unforeseen circumstances. We will always advise of the carriage charge before payment is taken.

All Dobies products should reach you in perfect condition, just as they left us. If you are dissatisfied in any way with their condition on arrival, please let us know within 14 days. We are only liable for the cost of the goods as quoted on the website plus the cost of delivery if the goods are faulty.

Unlike many companies, we publish all of our reviews - good or bad - to give you, the customer, total transparency and peace of mind.
