Beautiful plant, but you can keep the hornets please! They manage to sting me every year.

Fantastic close up shot. I don't know what variety you have there, but It's much prettier than the type they sell around here.!

This colour combination is definately my favourite. I'm a fan of the cool colours of the spectrum.

I love Wisteria, but the house is covered with Clematis montana and roses, so there is no room for one. Maybe it's for the best - I can't climb ladders!

I love Wisteria and the perfume is absolutely gorgeous. Have bought a small one for my garden a couple of years ago. Has not yet grown like your picture

I've just discovered this beautiful plant and I purchased one on the internet, but when I recieved it, it looked ill and has lost some leaves and the only leaves I can say are ok are right at the bottom of the plant.
I have planted it too so it's too late to send back but I will be keeping an eye on it.
I just wish that I had discovered it years ago.
I love them and hopefully mine will get to look like the one in this picture.

I love wisteria but when I had one it never flowered eventhough I had it for many years - not even one small flower ever. In the end I got fed up and chopped it down.

Sorry your was not a flowerer Blodyn. I've read that sometimes they can be like that. This one is a very old vine, here when we moved. It's very big and flowers ferociously. If you saw my photos in early May I took quite a few of it then. The perfume is amazing too.

Ours was like that Blodyn for years , in the end we hacked each stem so short to the main stem , it must have given it a shock because the next year it was loaded with lovely flowers

I've seen pictures of wisteria blooming in Ottawa..which is north of where I am... would have to have just the right spot for it...like a sunny south facing brick wall! lol.

Ours grows on a North east facing wall so doesn't get that much sun. We have cold winters too but not as long as yours. If they are sold locally then you could give it a shot.

I am a little upset about my wisteria, 4 weeks I have been caring for it and then I noticed new growth and I was extremely happy and then today I checked it and a slug or something had eaten the new growth :(
I am now thinking of buying a new one.

Don't give up hope Lilyb. If your wisteria is alive they are very good at producing masses of growth so it should produce more. I must say that nothing attacks ours except us with secateurs because we are always fighting to keep it under control.

What lovely Wisteria. I just planted one in the garden that I started in a container. So far so good. I understand they take a year or two to bloom. If mine are nearly as pretty it will be worth the wait.

mine went 7 yrs without flowering after we moved obviously it didnt like being in the suitcase......... then last year we hacked it right back..... it was creeping in through the bedroom window it had even made its stake in the spare bed... talk about embarrassing..........anyway to our surprise we had 2 flowers and this year it blossomed well over 50 flower heads

Members' notes...
I started with two of these (one blue, one white) over an arch in the garden. But as soon as my back was turned, they headed off up next door's conifer. They don't mind so I've let them go to the top (30 feet). Really spectacular when they are in flower
We inherited old Wisteria vine that climbs up to our terrace. Glorious show of flowers each May which attract hornets. Needs lots of taming.
A perfect Wisteria for a south facing wall. It will grow in most soils but takes at least 7 years to get going. This one is 20 odd years old. It takes quite a lot of looking after. The new shoots were plaited together to form a structure and now this has been formed all new shoots are cut back 3 or 4 times a year. It is a rampant plant and if left would quickly cover the house and get under the tiles. It is truly amazing when in flower.
White specimen growing over trellis between flower and vegetable garden. V overgrown when first moved in, pruned hard back in Feb 2008. Lovely new shoots and one flower appearing May 2008.
Not too healthy at the moment but I am caring for her and hopefully all will improve
Now 8 years old, still no flowers, I threaten it every year, ever the optomist !
