I am looking for weeping pussy willow, was supposed to get this in a trade, but the other person never followed through.

I am looking for cuttings or rooted cuttings, of the weeping pussy willow, blue leaf willow, and the one called Nicki.............. can't find the fullname. I have rooted corkscrew willow (generic)to exchange. Vangy likes to play in the dirt zone 5 SW Michigan

I have a small corkscrew willow tree that I would like to trade for some of the weeping pussy willow. If interested PLMK.Thanks! April/dirt_under_my_nails

Thanks for the speedy response. Glad it's not rabbits! As far as planting, I had dug a hole twice the width and as deep as the container the tree came in. After leveling the tree, the hole was back-filled with the soil from the excavation & mixed with some compost purchased from the nursery. A "jobe's" fertilizer spike inserted in the soil at one point in the canopy's circumferential radius. Covered the surrounding soil with cedar mulch three inches deep, per the instruction card attached to the tree. Root flare is hidden beneath the mulch. Watered and weeded surrounding area since. What makes you certain that this damage is old? I do not remember seeing these cracks before. Any good books I should purchase or look for at library? I agree, the internet is a quick way to become misguided (the blind leading the blind type of thing). I have a method to my madness. I usually try to find a few sources that share the same/similar answer to my question before I believe most of it. Cheers!
