How to Plant Willow Tree in OSRS

Willow trees are a popular choice for players in Old School RuneScape, as they offer valuable resources such as logs for Firemaking and branches for Fletching. Not only that, but they also look great in any player’s virtual garden. In this guide, we will show you how to plant a willow tree in OSRS.

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

Before you can start planting a willow tree, you’ll need to gather the necessary supplies:

Willow tree sapling

Spade

Rake

Watering can

Step 2: Find a Suitable Location

Once you have your supplies, you’ll need to find a suitable location for your willow tree. Willow trees can only be planted in certain areas, such as the Tree patches in Lumbridge, Varrock, Falador, Taverley, and the Farming Guild.

Note that you will need to have a certain Farming level to plant a willow tree in some of these areas. For example, you need level 30 Farming to plant a willow tree in the Tree patch near Falador.

Step 3: Prepare the Soil

Before planting the tree, you’ll need to prepare the soil. First, use the rake to remove any weeds or bushes in the area. Then, use the spade to dig a hole in the center of the plot. The hole should be one square in size.

Step 4: Plant the Tree

Now that the soil is prepared, you can plant the willow tree sapling. Use the sapling on the hole to plant it.

Step 5: Water and Check on Your Tree

After planting the sapling, water it with your watering can to help it grow. Then, wait for it to fully grow. This can take anywhere from 3 to 17 hours, depending on whether you use supercompost or not. You can check on the progress of your tree by examining it.

Step 6: Chop Down Your Tree

Once your willow tree is fully grown, you can chop it down to obtain willow logs and branches. To do this, use an axe on the tree. The logs can be used for Firemaking, while the branches can be used for Fletching.

Conclusion

Planting and growing a willow tree in OSRS is a great way to obtain valuable resources and add to your virtual garden. By following these simple steps, you can plant and grow your own willow tree in no time.
