It was actually planted much earlier, to allow Sirius Black to go to school (as a path to the shrieking shack.)
It was actually planted to keep people from getting to the Shrieking Shack, as going under the tree was the only way to get there. It was meant to keep people from getting to Moony, aka Professor Lupin, who as we all know is a werewolf. It was to keep people from getting to him when he was at school and when he turned, as well as, to keep him from getting to other people. I think the third book tells you this.
Oh...and i almost forgot, I think it was actually enchanted during James', Sirius', and Lupin's years at Hogwarts.
the whomping willow features heavily if that helps at all.
Harry Potter and Ron Weasley crashed into the Whomping Willow.
You may want to try beating all the other creatures around the Whomping Willow to gain levels and more SP and MP, then try fighting it. Another way is to try drinking some of the potions you found that will replenish your SP and MP, which will make you last longer and you will have a better chance of beating it.
It flew into the whomping willow Harry's 3rd year after he fell of it from being attacked by dementors
The rising action is when Lupin, Sirius, Harry, Ron, Hermiony, Snape, and Petter Petigrew come out of the secret passageway under the whomping willow. The moon comes out (a full moon) causing Lupin to transform into his true form (a wearwolf). Sirius then scares him away to protect Harry, Ron and Hermiony. Sirius then chases after Lupin to keep him away from everyone while he is in this dangerous form.

You should know that Remus Lupin is a Werewolf by now!. When he transformed he could go through the tunnel at the base of th tree so he couldn't harm anybody. The Whomping Willow was planted so that nobody could get inot the tunnel because you have to know the trick to stop the branches from moving. Hope this helps!

Ron's first wand, that belonged to his brother Charlie, was ash, 12 inches, and had a unicorn tail hair core. That was the wand that snapped when he and Harry crashed the flying Ford Anglia into the Whomping Willow. His second wand he got during the summer holidays after that happened was willow, 14 inches, and also had a unicorn tail hair core.
Yes, he was actually beneath the Whomping Willow a couple of times in the story as an adult.
