Product Information

Drive it 8 to 10 inches into the ground about a foot and a half away from the wisteria’s main trunk to slice into some of the roots. Chinese wisteria (Wisteria sinensis) and Japanese wisteria (Wisteriafloribunda)are non-native, invasivespecies, so we do not recommend them for North American gardens, despite the fact that they areregularly sold at nurseries and garden centers.They are hardy in Zones 5 to 9 and are capable of growing 30 to 60 feet in length (and beyond in the Southern U.S.). Two common varieties of Japanese wisteria include: One of the more popular methods for encouraging flowering in your wisteria is to drive a shovel 8 to 10-inches into the ground, at a distance of a foot from the trunk of the vine. Some gardeners swear by the addition of phosphate to the soil to spur flowering, while others rely on other gardening techniques to help the vines bloom. Remove seedpods at will or leave a few for winter interest. If you bring any indoors for display/decoration, be aware that the ambient warmth of the home may cause them toexplode.

Wisteria vines require a very sturdy structure to climb on, such as a metal or wooden trellis or pergola. Mature plants have been known to get so heavy that they break their supports, so plan with care and build your structure with heftymaterials. Wisteria is a vine that produces cascades of purple to bluish flowers during the late spring and summertime. These vines make a spectacular addition to your pergola or patio, providing a visual element that enhances your yard’s living areas. The park can be most easily accessed from Tokyo. All you have to do is take the Tohoku Shinkansen from Tokyo Station to Oyama Station (a 42 minute journey that costs ¥3860), and then take the JR Ryomo Line from Oyama Station to Tomita Station (a 13 minute journey that costs ¥580). Ashikaga Flower Park is then a short 13 minute walk away from the station. If you have the JR pass, the whole journey is covered by it, so it is definitely a place very worth visiting if you are staying in Tokyo and have the JR pass. The illumination displays are certainly something you have to go see with your own eyes, as the camera does not capture the magic of it all, and does the fantastical atmosphere no justice on screen. The difference between Ashikaga Flower Park and other illuminations (that I've seen in Japan) are the amount of different lights they have, and of course the wisteria light tunnels. Many of their lights were actually in the shape of different flowers (roses that change color, lotuses reflecting their light on the water) making the illuminations very detailed and impressive. The arrangement of lights with actual real flowers was also gorgeous, and you will find yourself spending a lot of time taking photos at each display. They also had interactive displays where you can press buttons to make lights change, with one adorable set sending a light flowing towards our planet earth, and sprouting a leaf on top! Bone meal is also another nutrient you can add to the soil in the early spring to induce flowering. We prefer using granulated fertilizer over water-mixed fertilizer for our wisteria. The granules provide a slow-release into the soil that won’t damage or burn the plant.Wisteria is also known for growing onto (and into) nearby structures, such as houses, garages, sheds, and so on. We strongly recommend not planting wisteria too close to yourhome!

Each spring, apply a layer of compost under the plant and a 2-inch layer of mulch to retain moisture and controlweeds.Another benefit of these fittings is that they come in designs that face both up and down, which means you can choose whether you would like a fitting that exudes bright or diffused light, depending on your preferences. If you plat your wisteria in a shady area, the plant will still grow, but it might not reach optimal heights, and you might find that the plant fails to flower appropriately during the spring and summer. The costs for delivery, installation services and monthly insurance products cannot be placed on BNPL.

American wisteria (Wisteria frutescens), which grows in Zones 5 to 9. It’s native to a range of states covering Virginia to Texas, southeast to Florida and north up through New York, Iowa, and Michigan. The vine grows 25to 30 feet long with shiny, dark-green leaves and large, drooping lilac or purple-blue flower clusters which appear after the plant has leafed out. The blooms will only appear on new wood. However, note that the flowers tend to be more lightly fragrant than the Asian wisterias’flowers. The popular Glow festive illuminations event will return to RHS Garden Wisley this Christmas, it has been announced. Mature vines get very heavy, so make sure that your structure can handle the additional weight of the plant, especially when it flowers. Wisteria looks beautiful growing along walls Tips for Caring for Wisteria Prune established wisteria in July or after flowers have faded. Cut side shoots to about 6 inches long, while retaining the climbing branches. This will create lots of short spurs all along the main vines. In late winter, prune the same side shoots, leaving two or three buds oneach.If you are located in North America, consider planting a species of wisteria native to the continent, suchas: Plant in full sun. Though wisteria will grow in partial shade, it probably won’t flower. Sunlight isessential. Don’t worry—it’s difficult to hurt this rampantly-growing, unrestrained, often-invasive plant! Pests and Diseases Affecting Wisteria Visitors of all ages will be able to experience the garden in a completely new light and embrace the magic of the festive season.
