	JewishEncyclopedia.com - WILLOW:
		The Feast of Tabernacles requires, according to the Bible, "willows of the brook," the Karaites and recent exegetes regarding this as applying to the booths themselves, while rabbinical tradition refers it to the accessory decorations for the festival.
		In addition to the species of willow unavailable in themselves, twigs were forbidden which had been placed under the ban, or which had been stolen or cut, or had become dry, though twigs whose leaves had partly fallen or withered might be used.
		Willows were also used independently on the Feast of Tabernacles as a shield for the altar, and were carried in the processions which took place daily, or, after the destruction of the Temple, on the seventh day, the "willow of the brook" receiving the name of "hosanna" from the processional shout.
