We analyse the integro-differential equation giving the shape of steady dendrites growing from a weakly undercooled melt in two spatial dimensions. A generalized WKB method shows that solutions at small velocities can exist with anisotropic surface tension only, a result completely out of reach of regular perturbation theory.
