Nice! And I love the tree! Is it twisted hazel?

its a twisted willow,Madperth i have got a twisted hazel in a pot,i love them.the hazel looks more healthy in the pot, than the willow does in the ground.the willows leaves tend to go brown and crinkle.dont know what im doing wrong!

Hee hee! I first thought willow, then remembered the one I had was hazel, so went for that! Maybe you should ask Andrewr, he seems to always have the answers, astounding knowledge! Ive just planted ordinary willow in my garden as a screen, so here's hoping!

Will do, I put up a pic when I planted it, & so far it seems to be quite happy. My plan is (when it's big enough) to train it & make a pergola of it!

It looks like a very peaceful corner of your garden, good on you for using reclaimed wood for the seat :)
