Aloe works real good for a root tone.

Here we cut willow and stick them in the mud for goose blinds. Often the next year the blind is living and growing.

Willow bark is a natural pain killer. Natures aspirin.

Yup that's the stuff.
Googeling willow water gives some videos. It will send you to UTUBE. The videos say 1" long and the size of a pencil. There is one video that includes the leaves. I've heard discard the leaves. I'm thinking that crushing the pieces would be helpful but haven't tried it. I will "plant" some cuttings from our hedge today.We'll see what happens.
good luck

Seems like a 20% increase in roots is pretty minimal?

True but if you have a 30% success rate to start with your now up to 50%
