Wisteria (Wisteria sinensis)

The Wisteria vine is well known for its groups of violet blooms which cascade downward like a beautiful waterfall. Prized for its fast growth and ability to climb, Wisteria can spread out to cover a large space both horizontally and laterally in your garden.

The fragrant blooms and seeds of the Wisteria attract butterflies and insects. The wonderful flowering Wisteria will drench your garden walls in color and the fragrance of a sweet appealing nectar.
