Planting & Care

1. Planting: Choose a spot that gets 4 to 6 hours of sun each day with well-drained soil. Dig a hole that's about two to three times the width of your rootball and place your shrub. After planting, you can add a thick layer of mulch around the base of the shrub to help the plant retain moisture.

2. Watering: The Pussy Willow likes water, but rain is usually enough. If you live in a dry area, you may need to water once a week. During dry spells or droughts, watering twice a week may be necessary.

3. Pruning: Start pruning after the second year of growth by removing all the branches each winter. Your shrub will have a bulbous area that the branches grow out of - simply cut off all the branches above that bulbous area in the winter before the new growth starts.
