This elegant white Japanese wisteria produces extravagant clusters up to 60cm (24in) long of fragrant, pea-like, white flowers in June and light green leaflets, turning yellow in autumn. Less vigorous than many other varieties it's ideal for training against a sunny house wall.
Wisteria floribunda is a twining, climbing plant that can be grown up to 7 x 4 metres in 20 years and looks fabulous grown over a pergola or up a wall. Wisteria like a position in sun or dappled shade, and prefer a moist but well-drained soil.

After planting prune back the leading shoot to 90cm (36in) above the ground. In the first growing season tie in lateral shoots and cut back sub-lateral shoots to two or three buds. During the first winter cut back laterals by one third and sub-laterals by two or three buds.
This climber is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.
