I'd take either. I have two "Austrees" right now...one is a year old that I got as a rooted start and the other is about 4 months old.

but I'd take weeping or straight--whichever or all of the above!

I'd be interested in anything that likes a lot of water (or can tolerate it as these will in the lawn, basically) and it has to be fast growing...

A weeping willow is a super fast grower if it is in a really moist location had one once that grew about 8 ft in a couple of yrs, then we moved....I got 3 stems from my moms tree a couple of weeks ago and just left them in a bucket of water and now they have about 2-3 inch long roots...Planted one of them about 5 days ago and is already getting a green leaf growing. I can get you some and wrap them in wet pt and put in ziplock, I don't need any eggs for them though just send them to you... Actually have one right now I can send you...It's an extra just has a few roots right now. When I had to give my flock away this last winter it bothered me so much to have to do it that I just got rid of everything else including my bator...So now starting from scratch again.

Don't worry about it...Just PM me your address and I will send it USPS priority either tomorrow if I get to the PO before they close at noon, or Monday at the latest...

ETA: When you get it you'll want to keep it in a bucket of water for another week probably till you see more roots growing in...It is already completely trimmed back so it looks like a green stick right now with a little leaf on it. I don't know how long you need one to be planted where you live to make sure it takes to the soil before cold weather sets in but if it gets cold really early I'd keep it planted in a pot with some very moist very nutritious soil, set it in a sunny location and plant in the Spring. Just make sure it stays good and moist til it takes root in the ground regardless of whether you plant it now or Spring. I'm sorry... You probably knew all this already...

Have a great day!!! Cindy

How many do you want? I can get lots of white willow ( we call them wild willows around here ) or cottonwood, I could send you about 3' trees bare root, they'd be ready to plant.

Both grow fast, I also have plenty of mulberry around here in various sizes, again, fast grower and chickens LOVE the mulberries!
