A willow dome or wigwam is a fun, living feature that can be incorporated in any family garden design. They are available to buy in kit form and will provide hours of fun for the children to play in. Because willow is a natural material it blends effortlessly with the rest of the garden too.
Being a hardy plant willow will tolerate most soil types and will cover in leaf in just one season. Keep it well watered for the first year and weave in the new growth as it appears and you will be rewarded with an exciting new playhouse!
Many of these willow kits are now being used in our primary schools which is fantastic. The children can get involved with the construction as well as the play.

I built a green willow garden. In the night, we kept a fire bowls in the middle of the dome and it was really awesome.
