Comments: Wisteria floribunda or Japanese Wisteria is a beautiful hardy plant with
spectacular blooms. It can be grown as a vine or a trained as a
shrub if you trim off the side shoots. Provide support when young.
Trim for shape and size. I allow mine to climb up an oak tree and
it looks awesome! It self sows freely so deadhead to prevent any
volunteer plants.
USDA Hardiness Zones : 4-9 |
