RE: Planting Basketry Willow: Useful Plants at Mountain Jewel

in #homesteading6 years ago

How wonderful and useful! What an oasis you are creating!! I am looking forward to hearing more about your future home. Thanks for sharing your journey. Those willow sprigs look so so healthy.

A few more questions, about nettle -- do you think the nettle will survive the one month transit time? I don't want it to needlessly suffer if i order it. I was also thinking i could try to find some wild nettle and dig up a root and try it in a pot. Might be fun to do one of each if you feel confident it could tolerate a month in shipping.

Thanks dear!! Shared a post today about choosing the location to face South!

I was thinking about how I would ship the nettle to you if you were to order it. I would recommend with a live plant shipping it to your Mom’s. I wouldn’t want to risk it sitting in customs again! Who knows why it takes so long to get over the border...

Would definitely suggest transplanting a wild specimen for your use!! That’s a great idea.
