Willows need plenty of water and can profit by laying hose close to tree and letting water seep slowly for several hours. Fertilizer can provide iron if there is an iron deficiency. Aphids, borers, caterpillars, scales, and gypsy moths can become problems, as can several fungi. Wilting and browning can be caused by drought.
