    The tree could be suffering from heat stress or drought-related stress (or even a combination of the two). Give the tree some extra water and this should help.

    Extremes of weather can cause the leaves to curl, but also the symptom can be caused by virus, bacterial, or micro organism infection. The only way to know for sure is to have the leaves analyzed. You can have this done at the local Extension Service office.

    Ah, the Carolina allspice. When I was a little girl in N.W. Pa, we had one that my gramma called a "sweet bush." And the weeping mulberry. Neither of them are fashionable these days, so to find them will take a bit of effort online, but you should be able to track down a nursery that will send some to you. I would try the local Extension Service first, to see if they can point you toward a source. This link will help you locate one of those: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/extension-search/

    There might not be another tree in the area so it will not fertilize.

    The most common cause of dripping willow trees is an insect infestation. Most likely, the dripping substance is actually honeydew, the waste of aphids and scale insects that consume sap. Both commonly infest willows. In this case, you will probably be able to see the insects themselves, though they are tiny:

    Pandora's Box Weeping Mulberry is one that produces good fruit. Dwarf Weeping Mulberry is a smaller option that is also fruiting- that one can be weaker and gardeners have had problems with it tipping over.

    This would be a big job, but I would say it is doable.
    You would need to move the tree in very early spring.
    The branches can be tied upward to allow you to work around the tree.
    You would began digging around the drip line of the tree and began severing the roots.
    After you have loosened and freed the root ball it would need to be slid unto a tarp and the root ball wrapped.
    You would need to carefully water and monitor the tree.

    I do think it would be wise for you to research the availability and the fast growth rate of purchasing a new tree.
    You can then compare the work and time involved with moving vs purchasing a new tree.
