- Synopsis
- In this image of a willow tree, the trunk stems from the bottom centre of the page and the leafy branches are in the bottom half of the page. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. There is a picture of a willow leaf in the top left and a picture of a catkin, which has a soft furry structure, in the top right of the page. The leaf stem is to the top right of the leaf itself. The catkin is similarly positioned. For scale there is a 'stick man' representing the height of an adult person in the bottom right of the page. The willow is a relatively short-lived tree and rarely reaches 100 years old. There are many species of willow. It has a habit of dropping large and apparently healthy branches without warning, apart from the large cracking noise as the branch falls. This gives it its common name 'Crack Willow'. A particular variety of willow provides the wood used in the manufacture of cricket bats.
