Description

Wisteria floribunda is a climbing deciduous vine that grows rapidly to 25' long. It needs support such as a trellis or arbor or patio cover. During the spring, spectacular 18" long, rosy-pink blooms hang like pendants from this vine. It needs full sun to part sun. This vine tends to sucker so if you have the standard form, you must continually prune. It requires medium water when young, but once established, it is drought tolerant.

Water Saving Tip:

Check your irrigation controller once a month, and adjust as necessary.

Most plants require only one-third as much water in winter as they do in summer.
