I have had a weeping pussy willow in the yard for 2 years now. It was about 2 feet tall when I planted it and has never grown more than about 3 feet tall. Is there anything I can do to get it to grow taller faster?

I am not familiar with this tree but appropriate fertilizer especially in early spring when the plant naturally wants to grow always helps.

This might tell you all you need to know.

Thank you for your reply and link.
The trouble with this type of plant is that it wants to grow just a little bit and then do a U turn so it can "weep:! Making a U turn keeps it from getting tall.
