Water
Provide consistent moisture, especially during establishment and dry periods. Water deeply when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot.
In containers, ensure good drainage.

Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Provide consistent moisture, especially during establishment and dry periods. Water deeply when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot.
In containers, ensure good drainage.
Prune to maintain desired shape and size, and to remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches. For ornamental effect, prune in late winter or early spring before new growth emerges.
Light shaping can be done throughout the growing season.
Easily propagated from cuttings. Take 15-30 cm cuttings in late fall or winter from healthy, mature stems. Insert them into moist soil or sand, or root them in water. Ensure they have at least one bud above the surface.
Container-grown Salix udensis rarely needs repotting due to its vigorous growth and potential size. If root-bound, repot in early spring into a slightly larger container.
Consider root pruning if maintaining a specific size is crucial.
