Goat Willow (Salix caprea)

Why Goat Willow? No-one seems quite sure - it's nothing botanical. It might have been grown to feed goats - who knows. It's the odd one out, as Goat willow (or Pussy Willow, or Great Sallow) doesn't necessarily need wet, although it grows as quickly as our other native willows. Salix caprea is dioecious too - male and female flowers appear on separate trees. As other true willows - as opposed to hybrids - it won't grow from a rod stuck in the ground. The male flowers are in the form of yellow catkins (as pictured), which are an important source of early pollen and nectar for bees in the critical period of early spring.

Value For Wildlife

In the female form Salix caprea has silver catkins, which are also an excellent source of early season nectar. There was a beautiful old Goat willow tree in our old village that was covered with our bees as soon as it came into flower - like the one pictured! Useful for the church flowers, too. Among its dependent species is the spectacular Purple Emperor, for which it is a foodplant. They seem to be second only to the oaks in terms of dependent species, which include several small mammals.

Plants For Sale

Like all the native trees we sell, our Goat willows are grown in the UK from UK origin seed. We sell 2 year old 60/90cm plants in multiples of 5.

We sell larger plants as either "feathered" or - the biggest we sell - standards. These are measure by their girth - so 6/8cm means 6 to 8cm around - and are typically over 6ft tall.

Suppliers: RV Roger, British Hardwood Trees.

See our planting and size guide for details and tips on planting. These Goat Willow trees are all bare root, and are consequently available for delivery from November until March. During the lifting season there may be up to a month's delay between placing the order and dispatching, due to weather conditions or pressure of orders, which are dealt with in date sequence. Orders for Goat Willows placed between March and September are confirmed in October ready for dispatch from November.

Have a look at our videos on what to do when your plants arrive and how to plant a bare root tree. Please ask about larger trees; we can often supply them but will need to quote on an individual basis as carriage varies so much.

Great for Sensitive Skin
Size: Size 5, Unit Count: 128
I've tried other diapers and I keep coming back to Huggies as they are the only ones that don't cause irritation for my little one. Little one is 12kg and we use size 5. They are very roomy but still snug enough around the waist. I'm amazed at how absorbent and soft they are. Although there are "cheaper" diapers out there, they don't hold as much and aren't as comfortable.

Good, but not better than Pampers 360.
Size: Size 5, Unit Count: 100, Size: Size 5, Unit Count: 100
We use Pampers 360’s for our 18 month old, but we decided to try out Huggies 360’s to check if they were better Huggies 360 differ from Pampers 360 in size. These Huggies are huge compared to Pampers, they fit true to size but are puffy and take up more space in the diaper bag and the diaper drawer. My toddler prefers to run around wearing only a diaper. Huggies are less durable than Pampers, they will fray and pill more with the friction of surfaces. They perform the same as the Pampers, we didn’t experience any leaks. They are also similar is softness to Pampers. The elastic at the sides also seems tighter than Pampers. The main reason we won’t be switching to Huggies 360 is that the absorbent panel in the front is wider and less flexible so more difficult to get into a comfortable position for my son’s anatomy. They do function well as diapers, they just aren’t for us.

Good product overall
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
Works really well, but only for a while. After about 3 or 4 weeks, it begins to stop working. Side effects-can leave you groggy if you don't get enough sleep. Helps you sleep better for a month or so. No odor. Good value for money, they don't cost a lot. Just melatonin and veggie caps. No other ingredients as far as I read

Works well I will continue buying them
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
This melatonin gives me a good nights sleep. I thought it was 3 mg but it is not, my mistake! I take two of these because 3 mg doesn't do it for me. I sleep like a baby when I take these and wake up feeling rested.
