These started from sticks I purchased at the market a couple Saturdays ago. Just for fun, I stuck them in a glass vase and filled it with colourful plastic beads so they would stand nicely on the kitchen table ... don't know why I put water in as I recall now when as a youngster we had dry pussywillows on the buffet. Anyway, it's been cool to see the changes as they sprouted roots, winding around and through the beads. Then came the greenery, so now I have to decide if I want to plant them around the yard. This is a great classroom visual for youngsters to watch how roots and buds change ... realizing the pussywillows are alive. Latiy^thos/Planting time ;)
