If you have them others do as well. They have to come from some where. And leave the same. Beverly PH. This was about 4 days ago. Now leaves are turning yellow and dropping off. Will my lovely tree recover? I feel really bad For it. The same thing happened to me with my willow. I watered and mulched like you did and it has recovered nicely. I gave it a really good watering I count to every other day and allowed the water to puddle around it.
My tree looks gorgeous now. I planted my tree about the same tine you did. How is yours doing now? Any advice? Can a corkscrew willow be grown in a larg pot and be pruned to keep about five-feet high?
I have had many corkscrew Willow in pots all my adult life, having got the original from my mom many years ago. They do really really well and pots especially if you can keep the pot itself from getting too much Sun exposure by planting other plants around the pot.
In the summer they require very frequent watering when they are in pots. I got a sprig from my neighbor. My sister was given some flowers at work ,in there was some twisted willow. I also received a flower arrangement and planted the branches, it lasted a year.
He only grew 4 feet. It had been in a large pot but the leaves were becoming a little yellow, so I decided to plant it outside in a sunny location. I hope it does better. I followed instructions to the letter. It was doing very well until Hot weather. It now looks like a Golden Weeping Curly Willow. Is there such a thing? I am watering most everyday but the hotter the weather the more it Weeps.
What am I doing wrong? The tree appears healthy, no Aphids, Mold, yellowing of leaves. It is Beautiful just not what I expected. And it was doing great until a couple weeks ago when the leaves started taking on brown spots and looking dry. Now some are starting to fall off all together. I backed off on watering. Most of these insects are annoying and normally only fatal to an already ailing tree. Poplar and willow borers drill into the trunk and create tunnels, and adults emerge to feed on the phloem -- food conducting tissue -- of the tree.
Borers may be fatal if they manage to girdle a tree -- eat all the way around the trunk -- or if they tree is already sick or in decline. Choose a pesticide labeled to treat the specific insect and always follow label directions explicitly.
Corkscrew willows are also prone to certain diseases common to many trees, like powdery mildew, scab and rust. However, willow blight, a combination of two fungal diseases called black canker and willow scab, targets willows. Symptoms include black lesions that start on the leaves and work their way down to the branches, causing the tree to lose its leaves.
The tree may eventually die after several seasons. There is no treatment for willow blight, but the fungicide mancozebm, which is labeled for willow scab, may partially control symptoms. As the young crawl up the trunk to reach the leaves, they're captured in the sticky tape and die. Aphids may lay eggs on the lower leaves but generally do not harm the tree.
On the plus side, its interesting branch structure, beautiful fall color and fast growing habits make it a desirable specimen tree. If you're designing a garden for four season interest, you can't go wrong with the corkscrew or curly willow, for its branches are dramatic and interesting when the leaves are gone. It is also good for areas where you want almost an instant tree since it grows to its mature height very quickly. The downside to growing this tree is its short lifespan.
Homeowners investing in their landscaping often want a tree that lasts for decades, not years. The tree tends to have a weak trunk and is prone to weather damage and cracking. Because of its beautiful shape, unfussy nature and general disease resistance, this willow remains a popular choice among gardeners nationwide. Plant one and enjoy your new tree.
