    Hi, this is my first post, I'm sure I will have lots more to follow!

    Can anyone tell me what this small tree/bush is please?

    And how to care for it?

    Hi and welcome! Being new myself, I'm still fairly clueless so can't identify your plant, but I'm sure someone more knowledgeable will be along soon :)

                      @Silver surfer will probably know. Hopefully he'll see this and give you something more definitive.

                      When I googled it white willow came up! What do you think?

                      I will have lots more questions as I've recently moved house and have my very first garden! Not got a clue though :lunapic 130165696578242 5: but promise I won't ask them all at once:)
