There was an article about "willow water" posted on one of the rose grower 
sites.  Apparently if you cut new growth early in the spring and soak it in 
water, it has a high concentration of a chemical that roots plants, and it is 
used to root rose cuttings.  I can email the text if you want it, I didn't 
keep the site name, but you can probably google it as "willow water".
