Gardening Update: Willow full of wonder
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.MODERN works of art to display in a garden are hard to find, though garden centres drown in retroplastic kitsch. Serena de la Hay makes strange, life-size willow figures, the strips of willow seeming like sinews of flesh. They would need careful placing. You need that shock of wondering if the figure is real, which you would get if one were set among trees. Contact her at Orchard Cottage, South Barrow, Yeovil, Somerset (0963 40625).
