Great addition to our yard.
The photos show Year 1 April (newly planted ) and Year 2 June (14 months after planting). We always wanted a Willow and I recently had to remove a pair of joined twin Oaks so I bought this Willow from Fast Growing Trees since I had success with all of my other purchases. This tree likes to grow and is easy to maintain. I have it in a semi-moist spot with room to sprawl. Since the fresh branches couldn't hold the weight of a bird in its first year, I almost lost the tree to Spotted Lantern Fly Nymphs (which suck the sap from the tree limbs). The leaves were being starved of water and nutrients — and they began to turn yellow. I used a mild topical insecticide recommended by the local nursery to save it. It hung on till Fall and then started to show some improvement with the late growing season. I knew when and what to look for early on in the 2nd year. I didn't need the insecticide this year — I mostly beat them off with a stick and let the chickens eat then from the ground. I also noticed the local wild birds are landing on the now thicker branches and they're eating the nymphs too. I check it almost daily and haven't seen any for a couple of weeks now. It helps to keep the branches from dangling all the way to the ground during nymph season too — I keep the longest ones about a foot off of the grass. It's very easy to get cuttings or clones rooted and growing as well. Roots and buds both sprout easily resting in a glass of water and a few days of patience. With a little effort, you could make your money back if you wanted to. I'm pretty thrilled with how much this tree has recovered this year. It looks very healthy and is shaping out nicely.
Beautiful Tree
