The Willow sapling is obtained by planting a willow seed in a plant pot filled with dirt with a gardening trowel in the player's inventory, then by using a watering can on the plant pot. A player must wait at least one crop cycle in order for a willow seedling to sprout into a sapling in the plant pot.
A player must have at least level 30 in Farming to be able to obtain this item.
Planting the sapling in a tree patch will yield 25 Farming XP and will result in the chance of growing a willow tree. Players can ask the gardener for assistance in watching over their willow tree for a payment of 1 basket of apples.
Secateurs can be used on a fully grown willow tree to obtain willow branch, which are needed during the Enlightened Journey quest and the medium Falador Diary. Magic secateurs also work with willow tree.
