hi early july this year i managed to get hold of some cuttings of this Willow, (salix?) im dont know the botanic name, some one could help me out on this one. I got the cutting at the neighbours , sat it in a bucket of water with many others. I have no pictures of it as a cutting, i almost forgot to get these ones. Sorry for the few pictures most pictureswere blured once again, well no going back now. So here is my progression so far, attachment=3]sept00001.jpg[/attachment]

Los of roots there.

Let it recover then think about what to do with it.
Bit hard to see from the photos, but i woudl probablyy take the branches you have back to at least where they start to turn up wards.
Let them shot and then pick the one to train

Definitely a healthy looking tree Petra, lot's of opportunity for some good nebari there.Wish I could tell you the species Petra but I don't know anything about Willows.
