JDog Posted May 13 Report Share Posted May 13 I planted this Wisteria twenty two years ago. The Lady who lives there now called me to say it was looking good and would I like to see it? My wife and I went round this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine doesn't flower well, it just grows and grows into my attic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmicblue Posted May 13 Report Share Posted May 13 Looks good. My parents had it growing up the the outside of their house, was an old plant that had a base trunk that must have getting on for 12" wide. That plant and I were adversaries, the harder I trimmed it the keener it seemed to become! Leave a window open for a couple of days and it would have got tendrils into the house. Have one in my own garden growing over an arbour - they do make a mess, the flowers have outer petals that drop off when it blossoms, they need sweeping up, then the flowers die and fall off, more mess, then the leaves fall, usually late in the autumn, yet more mess and then there is the constant pruning to keep it neat when its growing - low maintenance they are not!
