Frances Red

Salix purpurea 'Frances Red'

CA$16.00

A highly versatile French basketry cultivar valued for straight, slender rods with minimal side branching. Green and purplish-red while growing, the cured rods dry to a dark grey with red-violet undertones. Highly pliable, it functions well for all basketry components—from base stakes to fine side-weaving. Beautiful!
