Pussy willow as an Easter decoration? There is a risk of high fines. Willows are deciduous trees that can grow up to ten meters high.
Since not only insects, but also birds such as tits benefit from the pollen of the pussy willow, you should not prune specimens growing in nature. If you are caught doing so, you could face fines of up to 50,000 euros. Small quantities are permitted for private use, as long as they are not in a nature reserve or on private property.
