Water: Salix rorida requires regular watering, especially seedlings in summer. Mature plants can tolerate drought and excess moisture. Water around 5 PM daily when the soil is dry, but refrain during rainy spells as they absorb sufficient moisture from the environment.

Fertilize: In early growth, salix rorida benefits from light nitrogen fertilizer applied 4-5 times. Mature salix rorida requires minimal fertilizer; occasional potassic options can support health. Planted in fertile soil, it showcases vibrant leaves, and surrounding fertilized lawns reduce the need for additional fertilization.

Pruning: Salix rorida exhibits rapid growth with slender branches. Prune in early spring to promote new growth, remove dead or diseased branches, and improve airflow. Regular pruning enhances its form and vitality, supporting vigorous blooms and preventing overgrowth.

Propagation: Seedlings of salix rorida can be transplanted in early spring when the soil thaws. Care includes adequate watering and light fertilization. Cuttings should be taken from healthy stock plants, with proper cutting techniques for better rooting. Post-budding, maintain moisture and remove lower leaf buds while managing weeds.
