    Hi.
    As you can see from enclosed picture my salix is suffering! I've removed the dead leaves and some stems since taking this picture. The main stem is green when I scratch back the bark. The second picture shows the new buds coming through which are also brown and crispy. Its been watered regularly! 20200517_100310.jpg 20200517_100408.jpg Any advice please?

    The pot looks too small and it has probably dried out between waterings. I am having to water twice a day anything in a pot in full sun. Now the winds have arrived they dry out quicker than before.
