    Hi there: Started this from a cutting I found lying in the ditch approximately 1 month ago. Lo and behold it took root. I do not believe it is wild shrub but was once part of someones discarded garden/yard clean up. Leaves remind me of some type of willow however the bark is really quite golden or yellowish and each branch is very twisty.
    I am stumped and would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks in advance once again for the wealth of knowledge found here.
    Regards,
    Deb

    Liable to be either Salix 'Golden Curls' or S. Scarlet Curls = 'Scarcuzam'.
