We are lucky to be moving to a beautiful riverbank site shortly. I would like to plant a weeping willow/s at the waters edge. It is a stoney riverbank which floods regularly. How do I go about this, will the tree disappear with the first flood?Also I would love to set wildflowers on the sloping riverbank from the house. At present it is covered with grass, which is mowed/strimmed regularly during the growing season. Much of this ground is river stone, so I don't think rotavating is an option. What is the best way to introduce native wildflowers to this spot? I would really appreciate your expert advice on my first world problems!
