おもしろい事実

Even its branches, stripped of bark, were once smoked in ceremonial pipes by some Indigenous groups.

Its name 'osier' comes from willow-like branches used for weaving baskets long ago.

Some Native American tribes traditionally used its bark to make a crimson-red dye for crafts.

The red color in its stems gets brighter and more intense when the weather gets colder!
