White Japanese Wisteria

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. To enhance flowering prune the twining stems twice a year.Position: full sun or partial shadeSoil: fertile, moist, well-drained soilRate of growth: fast-growingFlowering period: JuneFlower colour: whiteOther features: velvety, green seed-pods in hot summers; all parts of the plant are harmful if ingestedHardiness: fully hardyGarden care: In the first growing season tie in lateral shoots and cut back sub-lateral shoots to two or three buds.
