Purple Wisteria

Plant Purple Wisteria in your backyard and you'll smell it from the front of your house.

 

It's fragrance is kind of like a Lavender / Gardenia blend. It just puts you in a good mood. Open your windows on a breezy day and let it fill your home.

 

Big 6-12 inch purple flower clusters brighten up your landscape. It's vines look like ivy and are beautiful year-round. Somehow in the spring, these small vines produce these giant floral recimes.

 

Purple Wisteria is much more versatile than most vines, they can:

Purple Wisteria grows as tall as it's host, typically up to a maximum of 30 feet. If planting along a fence, space every 4-5 feet.

 

This is a very forgiving plant. It grows in a wide range of soils, even alkalai, sand and clay. Tolerates drought and salt. Flowers best in full sun, but can grow in partial shade in the south.

 

Beware that not all Purple Wisteria is the same. If you buy a small plant, it could take 2-3 years before it blooms.

 

We don't offer Wisteria in small containers or bare-root, like many nurseries. Instead you get a well developed, 2 gallon plant that will bloom the very first season, and quickly take off.

 

Plant several for a fragrance you'll smell from a distance.
