Any chance of getting your opinions on the identity of the following tree. Sorry first photo isn't great.

I guess willow by the bark, but all your pics could be better.

What's with the crappy get rich quick ads which appear under the photos???

 

Possibly contorted willow.

[Jimwilli]

Sorry they were taken on mobile. The get rich quick ads are because I hosted them on a picture hosting site. i've redone them with no compression so hopefully a bit better quality.

 

Someone has suggested contorted willow to me although I couldn't find much on the google about them so decided to ask here. I did find a claw willow is this another name? How big do these grow?

 

Thanks

Some better pics taken yesterday.

 

Would anyone have any idea of the health?

A lot of the branches look brittle although this seems to be a feature of contorted willow. All the leaves visible appear to be from climbing rose (?) behind this tree. No leaves as of yet on the willow although you can see a few buds here and there.

 

Cheers

Loose the shite attachments and maybe people will be more inclined to communicate -

I mentioned it before - I'm off.

Sorry I always though it was better for forums if you hosted the pictures on other websites with regards to storage capacity and image size. I definatley don't profit from pichost.org!

Here is the rest of the pictures

Looks a little like corkscrew willow but better pics may help.

Salix matsudana if your looking for the botanical name
