Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comWe planted a weeping willow tree approximately 5 years ago. It is really not growing very well and is slow growing. My son did trim it back 2 yrs ago and it has still not grown so much. What can we do, or what can we use on it to get it going??

Watering the tree once a week could help, especially during dry periods. Water the whole area where the roots could be growing, not just right at the trunk, to get the most benefit.
