Willow tree

Willow trees are a larger species of tree that are fairly uncommon and are often spotted naturally growing near sources of water. Willow wood is useful as it provides a significant bonus to bows made from it. Willow wood is known to damage slightly faster than other wood types when used in tools such as a fishing rod, and it's sparsity and long growth time make it unfeasible to use as a 'fuel tree'.
Willows also kill other trees within 2 tile of it while growing, due to their massive foliage blocking the sun underneath the tree.

Note: Both Oak and Willow require the kill zone to grow. (If planting an Oak or Willow next to eachother you would need to ensure there are 2 empty tiles between them.)

Large quantities of willow trees (ie, forests) that are naturally occuring are extremely rare. JK-H was known to contain one of the only willow forests in the entirety of Wurm.

Arrow shafts made from willow wood damage faster.
