    Corkscrew Willow advice please

    Many thanks @shiney, I will upload more pictures as it hopefully gets new growth. For now, here's a pic that shows how the branches hang. Maybe it's a willow, not a corkscrew willow?

    I felt really cold today so heating is back on. Still have leccy blanket and fleecy bedding on too. Although the temps aren’t that cold, this wind mixed with rain is most miserable.
