Sounds like it's getting too dry. Willows need a lot of water. the tub
may be a mistake.

Yes, I generally agree with that. However, because it's a dwarf form, it
may cope with the pot provided you keep up with the watering. However, bear
in mind that it will lose its leaves about now anyway, so you will no longer
have that 'dehydration barometer'.

Thanks for your tips..I will keep up with the watering!!!!!!
