Easter Willows During Lent

A lovely European faith-based tradition is providing and using Easter Willows during the Christian season of Lent.  Easter Willows (or sometimes referred to as Pussy Willows) come in several varieties; and, one of the most popular or desired varieties is the "rabbit paw". (pictured here).  We home-grow our own willows.  Willows only bloom in an extremely brief time-frame, just before Easter, if the Spring season is typical, and must be harvested during that time only or the willows start to overgrow and produce seedlings for the next season.  When harvested at the right time, Easter/Pussy Willows add an "old-fashioned, ancient and unique" touch in your home, at the church altar or the grave-site of your loved one.  Contact us and place your order at any time and we'll deliver to your home, your business, or florist the most beautiful bouquet of Easter Willows.
