Thanks very much and welcome to the channel. The Fedge had done really well this year. Infact I've just cut it back for winter. I will be doing a update video on its years growth soon.
Looked really good, I'll look forward to seeing it grow. Was it asked for by the customer or something you suggested to them? It's always good to find a use of waste, only the other day a customers neighbor wanted the hazel I had coppiced so he could use them for plant supports. I could hardly say no, seems a shame to waste resources! Keep up the good work. Subscriber count is rising. 🙂
It's was taken from a customer but (don't tell anyone 😉😉lol) this is just small part of landscaping my own garden on a new build. I just couldn't wait to share my creation. Also a hazel creation is in the making. But I might have bitten of more than I can chew with that one.
Thanks for sharing this, I'm hoping to do exactly the same thing over an 8m gap. Do you think it is too late in the year to do this and would you be able to tell me how far apart the branches are that you planted?
Thanks for watching. I'd like to do another over a larger area in the future. I have seen willow whips for sale and planting would be ideal but I wouldn't be cutting from the mother plant until winter now. I did 6inch spacing on mine. The ground around it is getting very rooty now. It is definitely helping with soggy wet clay ground
Beautifully done fella. I've a willow to copse as was going to make a hedge out of it but I can not stand willow 😣 Have you ever done this but made a dome/shelter?
Thanks very much. I did want to make a dome but didn't have enough whips to do both tbh. I'll be coppiceing a second tree at the property next year, might have to squeeze one in somewhere then lol. Hazel weeving next week.
Would like to see what that fledge looks like when it grows, & about how to maintain it over time…speaking of that, what is the life expectancy of a fledge like this? How tall does it grow? Does it try to revert to growing like crowded trees, if not routinely trimmed?
Hi. Am sure it has been in a later video I've done. I'll have a think and pop the link on. It's now in its third year and I trim it twice a year on the face. I also remove all new growth on the arch bits lower down to keep the look. In winter I cut everything back to the trunks. Can't say about its life cycle but I can't see it turning up its roots any time soon.
Hi Bruce and welcome to the channel. I pollard this Willow every two years. I have two at this property I do and will alter the years. So next year am planning on doing a dome shelter, all being well. Thanks for watching 👍
Great use of by products. I recently pollarded a mature sweet chestnut and ended up cutting and sharpening 42x3" stakes for future tree and shrub planting. Natural look to complement whatever their supporting.
Thank you. It's fantastic to reuse what we can. Such a charm to natural products. I've got hazel in my sights for next week. Thanks for watching and your support 👍

Excellent job.
Thank you very much. Am thinking of doing another this year but maybe a woven heart something really different.
Beautifully done👍
Thank you very much

Oh well then I look forward to seeing if you can create a better garden than your last! No pressure!
That sounds like a hint for a future video then!
@@karlg5680 as a little teaser am going to try growing a 🦒 giraffe lol.
That's awesome 👍🏼
Thanks very much. Let's hope it all takes and grows well.
Great stuff! Any chance to see what it looked like last summer?

Do you have any videos of how it looks now it's grown?
in what season should this be done?
Late winter

Hi looks great, going to do myself soon. But a bit worried about all of the cable ties, how long do you keep them on for?
I kept them on for a year. Can use twine instead but I wanted quick and strong.
Where's the updated video?
Beautifully done fella. I've a willow to copse as was going to make a hedge out of it but I can not stand willow 😣

@@TheCountryCottageGardener I've yet to chop ours I will give you a shout as there tons off ours 😂😂
@@lincsfencingandgardeningse9128 lol, thanks very much.
Great video! What time of year is best to do this?
Thanks. I did this during winter but early spring is still good.

I believe you get to see it in this video I done
What sort of willow are these? Thanks
Am not 100% sure as I didn't plant the original tree but Its belive viminalis
The pollarded willow at the beginning, is that 1 year of growth?
Hi Bruce and welcome to the channel. I pollard this Willow every two years. I have two at this property I do and will alter the years. So next year am planning on doing a dome shelter, all being well. Thanks for watching 👍
How did you control the invasive roots mate?
I didn't do anything. This ground is heavy clay and it sits very wet. Part of the reason I planted this was to help with the waterlogging

Can willows grow without ALOT of water?
They can, but prefer wet areas.
very country cottagey indeed.
I'd like to do a bigger one linked to a arch, something to really get stuck into. I'll have to keep pushing on new projects
Oh RUclips and your double adverts, how tired I am I you.
