Re: Curly Willow starting

Hi Jesse, Just to let you know, I have one planted in the North edge of Z-5. Does fine, now about 15 to 18 feet tall. Still, it's a messy tree.

i had the same situation, decided to plant the willow, and have been pleased with the result... at least until it got caught up in the latest deep freeze! it will probably come back though.

I had a curly willow (or contorted willow is what the florists called
it) and it rooted. I planted it out in my yard 2 years ago and it is
BEAUTIFUL....so if I were you, I'd plant it. I'm zone 6 and we have some
brutal winters and that tree has done just fine.

On another subject, a curly willow from a holiday centerpiece appears to be rooting. Trying to decide whether I want one or not. Probably not. It's a big chore to keep my artic willow managable. Kind of like getting a puppy, 
cute & fluffy when it's little, watch out once it starts to  grow.
