Really great advice. Much appreciated. Thank you. 🎉
I have a wisteria I planted 20 odd years ago. It has never grown much - it's about 4 feet high. It has never flowered. It faces south in a walled garden, in France :/ I live in hope. I bought one for my mother, and it flowered from the start.
Yes, I am that impatient person and I need Wisteria in my life immediately 😉Thank you for this lovely video ! #HonBeni #AmethystFalls #Violacea
Simple, to the point, informative. Just how it should be. Thanks 😊
Just came across this charming and fact packed video. Not a wasted second...nor boring, everything you would need to know right here. LOVED it ❣
Love the guys humour 😄
I’ve got a large pergola that’s just screaming out for one these gorgeous plants. Thank you so much for all the great tips!
I just want to caution you because people cautioned me and I did not listen… Make sure you do not let the wisteria grow through your pergola. Because it grows really thick very quickly and it will crush your pergola. I didn’t listen and probably next year, my pergola is going to be smashed.
@@jodyvollmer4125 thanks for the warning 👍
I had a bunch of wisteria in the backyard pergola. They were magnificent during bloom but during the other 10 months they were impossible to maintain. Root suckers creeped along the beds, they took over every tree within reach and created a nightmare. Even found it's way up a gutter and to the roof of the house. Eventually they would have pulled down the gutters. They are a huge commitment of time and energy which few people have.
I have some growing on the back of the house just under the gutters, however, I put large hooks up and they grow on that...I simply take it down if it gets too ambitious! I love it and it looks quite romantic, but they do need to be put in their place.
Very inspiring! Growing from Texas!
My potted wisteria found a hose going to my second story patio. Once it found something to hold onto it shot up counterclockwise with an annual growth of 25’+. I even had time to air layer the single running branch of what much be Japanese based of the twist. These plants seem to give their all when they find something to hold onto. As it climbed it also got more sun. It literally grew two feet per week during the active growing season and the plant is in a pot. I have the pot standing in water in free draining soil which seems ideal during summer. I’m probably going to graft the top to be multicolored if I can find some scion within the next week or two.
Fantastic summary, thank you 😁
Brilliant advice! Got to admire wisely for their knowledge.
Reminds me of my childhood...we had a purple one growing up a tall tree but oddly enough most of the flowering happened no higher than 5 or so feet.
Thank you, great points.
Great video. Thanks again.
Absolutely gorgeous I love them
thank you so much! it was very complete information!
I love my Japanese Wisteria💜
Same here… does not grow as fast as they say … mine only flowered once in 7 years with pruning!! Japanese beetle love them!!!! Get the traps out now!!
Excellent video!!!
Glad you liked it!
What a great recording! thank you for your clear tips and tricks!
Thank you.
I have had a wisteria plant for 20 years and has not blossomed once it is facing south east on Lake Champlain
Wow, reading people have had these 10/15 yrs and they haven't flowered!? Would that be the soil, position are they just slow to flower like that?
I have a vision of white wisteria and red roses but i might be dead in 10-15 yrs lol
Are there any other wisteria like plants anyone can think of that might make a good alternative, not much of a fan of clematis though. Thanks
Hi! I bought a 5’ wisteria that looked almost as a small tree, it bloomed the year after I planted and it hasn’t bloomed since then. I did pruned late winter and it has grown allot but no blooms sadly. Please help.
Gread vid☆
I just planted a wisteria. A day after planting we had a drop in temperature near freezing and then again weather got better, but my wisteria's leaves started to turn yellow and dry out. Should I do anything? What is the best solution? Thanks
💕💕💕
My 15-year-old wisteria has not flowered yet. It is in full sun however, I never gave it a hard prune… Thanks to lots of gardening videos today I gave it a hard, prune back to three buds. Fingers crossed. I will get some flowers. I also realized how thick the stem has become. It’s eventually going to crush the PVC archway. It is growing against. 💔
Best of luck!
We need an update from you this year! Very curious!
we are well into April, and I don’t have any flowers yet! Every day I check my plant, and it still seems dormant. I’m hoping I didn’t kill it with the prune.
Yes, the double flowering, scented Japanese black dragon; every year my mother cuts it to a stump, before it strangles the drainpipe and clogs up the guttering. Never seen a full length flower tendril grow on it, but then never had foliage long enough to supply one. (Slightly like saying f*** O** to an algorithm that’s constantly looking for prey to project onto & feed from)
And much more like red dragon, from silence of the lambs, who only requires blindness of deeds and core character values, with the development of tactical political correctness as a Ruse to look like a nicer person.
Well, fingers crossed! I just checked my plant and I believe I have four blossoms coming!!! Hopefully they will survive a hard freeze if we get one. I will be so happy that people will be sick of me talking about my wisteria flowers.
thank you. Such useful information. I planted my wisteria 10 years ago. I have always pruned it twice a year, In July and February, but I have never had flowers. My plant is grafted and is on a West facing house wall. Should I give up on it or not prune it one year to see what happens? Maybe I am being over zealous with the pruning? Thank yo so much :-)
There is another RHS video showing how to prune Wisteria in later summer and again in later winter. Well worth a look.
thank you :-)@@robertbray3685
Hey where was the nursery you were at, at the beginning of the video?
Hello, this is the RHS plant nursery and show at RHS Wisley!
Can I take this plant to my country?
Just bought one online , gutted it has no flowers , no label 😮 ,learnt it can take 20 years sometimes to flower. I can’t even remember what colour it is meant to be .
Hopefully Matt's advice will be helpful to care for your new Wisteria! We also have this pruning video you might find useful: ruclips.net/video/P0qDeGhEjLY/видео.html

Is this guy taken/married? I wanna take him out on a date
He is probably gay 😅 very likeable though!
Lotsa diffwint…..🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have a beautiful wisteria but the aroma is not good. I put it in a bouquet and brought in the house. It smelled like cat pee. Yuck! Again, it is beautiful.
The background music has no right to be this good, all the way to the end!!
