Fantail Willow: Flattened Branches for Sculptural Floral Designs
Winter & spring
Explore fantail willow’s flattened, ribbon-like stems and the branch combinations featured in an archived Oregon Coastal Flowers seasonal newsletter.
What makes the stems fan-shaped
The original article identified fantail willow as Salix sachalinensis ‘Sekka’ and described fasciation, the growth pattern that creates flattened, ribbon-like branches. The resulting form supplies a sculptural detail that stands out among round stems.
Use the shape as the design feature
The source suggested tall-vase arrangements, centerpieces, bouquets and event installations. Each branch has its own silhouette, so ask the farm about the actual grades and forms available rather than expecting every stem to match a photograph.
The archived branch-season context
The embedded email paired fantail with pussy willow, quince, forsythia and magnolia in a Chinese New Year program. It also included a later spring preview of cherry, Pieris, dogwood, spirea, viburnum and hellebores.
