    Plant Care Tips

    🌿 Planting


    Choose a sunny to lightly shaded spot where the soil stays consistently moist. The Corkscrew Willow grows best near ponds, streams, or any area with regular moisture. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and set the tree at the same depth it was growing in the container. Backfill gently, firm the soil, and water deeply to help settle the roots.

    💧 Watering

    Keep the soil moist, especially during the first year. Water deeply whenever the top layer of soil begins to dry out. Once established, the tree becomes more tolerant of short dry spells but will always perform best with steady moisture. Avoid letting the soicompletely dry for long periods.

    🌸 Fertilizing


    Feed lightly in early spring with a balanced slow-release fertilizer. Because the Corkscrew Willow is naturally fast-growing, it typically needs only minimal feeding to stay healthy and vigorous.

    🍂 Mulching


    Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch around the base of the tree to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Keep mulch a few inches away from the trunk to prevent rot. Mulching also helps
    reduce weed competition.

    ✂️ Pruning


    Prune in late winter or early spring while the tree is dormant. Remove weak, damaged, or crossing branches to maintain strong structure and encourage healthy new growth. You can also prune lightly to shape the tree or harvest decorative curly branches for arrangements.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How fast does a Corkscrew Willow Tree grow?
    The Corkscrew Willow is a very fast-growing tree, often adding 3–6 feet of growth per year under ideal conditions.
    How tall and wide does a Curly Willow Tree get?
    A mature Corkscrew Willow typically reaches 20–30 feet tall and 15–20 feet wide, forming an attractive open canopy with twisting branches.
    Does the Corkscrew Willow need a lot of water?
    Yes - this tree prefers consistently moist soil and grows especially well near ponds, creeks, or irrigated areas. However, once established, it tolerates short dry periods.
    Is the Curly Willow Tree messy or invasive?
    While it is not invasive, it can drop small twigs due to its naturally brittle branches. Plant away from underground pipes, septic systems, or foundations because of its strong, moisture-seeking roots.
    Can I grow a Corkscrew Willow in a pot?
    Yes! Young curly willows grow beautifully in large containers and make striking patio plants. However, because they grow quickly, they may eventually outgrow the pot and need transplanting.
    Do Corkscrew Willows lose their leaves?
    Yes - they are deciduous trees, meaning they drop their leaves in fall. The bare winter branches create their famous curly, sculptural look.
    Are curly willow branches good for floral arrangements?
    Absolutely! The twisted stems are highly sought after for floral décor, dried arrangements, bonsai, and centerpiece designs. Many gardeners grow this tree specifically for harvesting its unique branches.
