Rooting Contorted Willow (Corkscrew Willow) Branches

Contorted willow (Salix matsudana 'Tortuosa') branches can be rooted if not too dry. Soak overnight, cut 6-inch sections, insert into sand-filled clay pot, keep moist in a sunny window. Roots and leaves appear in 6 weeks. Transplant to bright shade for summer, then to permanent spot in October. Willows are short-lived (5-15 years) but provide abundant curly branches.
