Hi! I was recently given a bunch of corkscrew willow branches which I immediately put in water, before even knowing that it was a willow. A few weeks have passed and the branches have bloomed, big time! It’s gorgeous, I love it! However, I still have them in a tall glass vas. I can see that there are vines growing in the water and right now it looks like a tangled mess. I need to plant it somewhere and since I live in a Brooklyn apartment, I don’t have much options except for perhaps a ceramic pot… or anything else that someone/anyone may suggest.
Please help! I can’t even begin to tell you how beautiful these crazy branches looks with its pretty green leaves. I want to keep it forever and just watch it grow, and grow and grow…. but, in order to do that I first need feedback from all of you experts out there.
Look forward to hearing from… anyone.

Willows are fast growing, so it’s unclear how long you’d actually be able to just keep it in a pot inside. It’s going to have to go into the ground to really flourish, I think.
