Pussy Willow Live Stakes

Pussy Willow Live Stakes can help landowners, restoration contractors, and gardeners see results quickly with long-term value. Available at TN Nursery, these cuttings are dormant when harvested and selectively chosen for excellent viability, so customers know they can count on good establishment. These stakes quickly root in the ground, take up moisture, and can start working right away to help hold soil and shore up other plantings. They're an excellent addition to restoration plantings as well as to more naturalized settings, where a native grass-and-tree hedge would be a welcome asset.

Quick Root Formation:

These live stakes establish readily in moist soils, making them a dependable choice for restoration, conservation, and landscape projects.

Supports Pollinators:

Early blooms provide an important source of nectar and pollen for bees and other beneficial insects emerging in spring.

Ideal for Wet Areas:

Pussy Willow thrives in damp conditions and is well suited for streambanks, rain gardens, and other moisture-rich planting sites.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are Pussy Willow Live Stakes used?

These live stakes are planted directly into the soil where erosion control, soil stabilization, or natural revegetation is needed. Once planted, they root in place and grow into living shrubs that strengthen the land over time.

Do Pussy Willow Live Stakes require special care after planting?


They are very low maintenance. Natural soil moisture is usually enough to get them established, especially in damp or low-lying areas. Supplemental watering may help during unusually dry periods.

When will I see growth?

Under proper conditions, rooting begins quickly, and new growth often appears during the first growing season, especially in spring plantings.
