    Help with advice: you need to choose a tree, sprawling, large and mature. Willow would be perfect, but I don't know if it will grow. In fact, they grow nearby, but there is a lowland, 200 meters to the place where I want to plant. Our groundwater is deep. The soil is probably loam. I don't know exactly yet. What other types of trees would you recommend? If willow, what kind of willow? And then there are so many of them, but I need one on which mermaids live - a large one, with hanging branches.

    In the autumn they gave the willow Matsudana, but I never dropped her. I hid it in the greenhouse. How best to save the tree till spring?

      In spring, plant the plant in the most closed place from the cold northern and eastern winds. Pour under the plant for 20-30 l water per week. For a season 3 times, fertilize with mineral fertilizers. In the first days of November, start cooking for the winter.

      Do a water recharge. Ground the plant around the plant with a pine bark or chips (a layer of 6 cm), on top - with dry leaves. The trunk can be wrapped in a pipe with a heat-insulating "K-flex". With the arrival of stable night frosts, I install a tripod of welded steel rods over the tree and wrap it with two layers of white spunbond with the density of 19 g / square. m. With the advent of spring, the insulation is gradually removed. But I leave the spunbond until the spring frosts finally pass.

      This willow does not give root shoots and is best propagated by lignified cuttings. They are harvested in autumn, during the fall of foliage. By the way, at this time cuttings of willow can be planted directly in the open ground. They cut into a length of 20-35 cm, although the willow Matsudana reproduces well and is shorter - 8-10, see Cuttings must be planted deeply, leaving only a small part of the ground, the nose 2-3-my kidneys (for most of them it's only 2- 3 cm). Roots are formed along the stem and on the base section.

      Plant the cuttings a little obliquely and leave until spring.
      I prefer to sow seeds and plant cuttings in special schools - fenced areas prepared for long-term seedlings, usually within two to three years before transplanting them to a permanent place. Young trees of the willow at first time (2-3 year) must be sheltered from frosts.

    They gave a tree, looks like a willow. But strange: branches twisting, leaves twisted. It's a disease?

      Perhaps you got a willow Matsudana or Sverdlovskaya meandering, outwardly they look alike.
      The first is lower - it grows in the middle band to 3-4 m in height, this plant with very low frost resistance. Willow Sverdlovskaya winding, up to 12 m in height. It endures our winters, it does not freeze. The disease and pests are fairly stable. The flowers of both are absolutely plain. All the charm of these willows - in curved twigs and twirled leaves. Both prefer moist soils, but they also tolerate inadequate watering.
