A little watering when new.

When newly planted, the trees would love a little watering at least once a month for the initial couple of months. Afterwards keep moist but well drained.

Full sun

This willow tree loves full sun exposure or a sheltered locaton allowing all the nutrients to create the blossom and foliage in your garden. When choosing a spot away from strong winds, it will allow all the resources to go towards growth and protection of its display.

Happy in most soils

Those trees will flourish in moderately fertile,moist and well drained soil especially next to ponds. If kept in a pot ensure to water it well.

Little or no pruning required
