Have to agree, looks very much like a willow to me as well. If I'm not mistaken it's an 'Osier', it can be distinguished from other willows by its long slender leaves and short catkins.Comment

If you really want one of them take a couple of cuttings - they will root in water.Comment

Willows are ridiculously easy to root. Just cut off a couple of branch tips (about a foot long) and stick them in a glass or bucket of water until they produce roots. Then plant one wherever you want your tree to be.Comment
