Black Willow Live Stakes

Black Willow Live Stakes: Salix nigra, the lovely black willow tree, is part of a larger family of deciduous shrubs and trees. This species grows fast, a hardy tree that will thrive in almost every USDA zone. This tree grows well from Maine south and west to Texas.

Like most trees in its genus, the black willow prefers the full sun and consistently moist and fertile soils of bogs, swamps, marshes, ponds, river banks, and other wetter locations. Plant your black willow live stakes in a site that duplicates this environment.

TN Nursery recommends the black willow live stakes for continuously wet soil customers, particularly with water erosion issues. It provides an effective remedy for eroding soil due to the sprawling and robust root system that helps stabilize soil in the most challenging conditions.

What Is a Black Willow Live Stake?

Live staking is a technique landscape professionals, and gardeners use to reforest, particularly along river edges.

Live stakes are tree branches harvested by horticulturists during a dormant period and then planted into the soil immediately. They quickly start to sprout roots and grow into new trees. This technique usually happens in the late winter or early spring--but tree dormancy varies based on local weather conditions. The general rule of thumb is to place your black willow live stake in the exact spot you want to grow it as soon as the ground defrosts in the late winter or early spring.

Your Black Willow Live Stakes Will Grow Into a Lovely Tree

The name of the black willow refers to the tree's bark color--a deep brown that appears black. As the black willow live stake grows, it will develop a rough texture with well-defined grooves and scales. The branches will grow long, slim, and somewhat droopy. The tree's crown will become full, forming an attractive, slightly asymmetrical shape.
