Thanks! Those particular branches won't root, as they're several years old, but I have a couple of fresh branches in one pot, so we'll see LOL!
It was just one of those light-bulb moments... I needed stakes for some top-heavy bloom stalks, and no way were chopsticks going to be tall enough for these... I happened to go into the living room, where I had a big vase of pussy willow, and thought, those have been on display like that long enough; let's put them to another use!
I've had 8 or 10 blooming pots lined up along the back of my kitchen island for the past few weeks and enough buds coming to extend the show for a couple more weeks... it's really fun... this is the time of year when it doesn't seem so crazy to have a whole lot of pots of bulbs LOL.
