I just got a job at a landscaping company and I can get all the throw-away plants/trees that I want from the "dump" pile! Plus I can take any cuttings from pruning everything. Needless to say, I'm bringing home lots of plant possibilities for bonsai projects, and learning about different ones that I didn't even have access to look at before I got my job. In addition to purple wisteria with a fragrance, and Star Jasmine, I get to experiment with Indian Hawthorn, all kinds of yews, Elaeagnus (Silverberry), all kinds of hollies (Needlepoint and Nellie), standard maples, jap maples, crape myrtles, oaks . . . Wish that I had a way to send you all my hundreds of cuttings! :)
This video is very timely. I dug up my first wisteria this spring. It had so few roots I was certain it wouldn’t survive. Well not only did it survive it is thriving. Thanks, keep growing
Peter, thank you again. I want to say my knowledge of the process of keeping bonsai has increased greatly since following your channel. Thank you so much for your humble teaching.
Thank you for posting this. I have been wanting more information on Wisterias for a long time. I just love them. I am surprised that the wisteria you showed at the Chelsea Flower Show is a picture I have admired for years, glad to know it's one of yours. I have been missing flowers a lot this year. Thanks to a long visit to family far away this year, my garden went unattended and I really don't have any flowers to enjoy. Mainly thanks to a patch on miniature pumpkins growing all over them. My bonsais were safely taken care of at my parent's house.
Brilliant video! How do you go about starting a new bonsai from a young plant? Do you have a video on shaping or forming the main structure from start? Thanks
I remember maybe 6 months ago you worked on a customer's wisteria, it had bloomed a bit early because it was kept in a greenhouse. The trunk was straight at first then leaned to the side, with a branch coming from the outside of the "elbow". That tree motivated me to buy a wisteria THAT DAY, lol. In the past 6 months it has taken over my fence 😂 Can't wait til spring so I can get it on it's way. Thanks for the info Peter!
How long will it take for a wisteria to flower? we have one since 4 yrs and we have not seen a flower yet. What is the best care to give this wonderful plant and how do I nurture it properly? Thank you!
@@rsa420 thanks, but i did not grow it from seed. i bought it as a little tree and they told me it will flower right away. which it sadly never did. so i wonder what is going on. what i do wrong?
Thank you so much for your wonderful video of wisterias; it is one of my favorite plants, and I learned so much from you, again thank you very much!!!!!
Thank you for this video! Tutorials about wysteria are pretty rare. As i have one in my garden that i would like to turn into bonsai, i would have been interested in some tips to dig it out and put it into a pot... I love your chanel !
I can't help feeling sorry for Mr Chan, I used to have a youtube channel some years back and the obligation to followers can be a little heavy on the shoulders at times. It becomes another job in itself and with everything else he has to do, can just add to the work load, no matter how much the person enjoys it, it can feel a burden at times when we aren't in the mood for it. Having said that, I have just purchased my white wisteria to keep in a pot, I have read that the Japanese wisteria grows clockwise because of how it grew many centuries ago, because Japan used to be in the Southern hemisphere but moved to the Northern, but the wisteria from Japan refused to adapt. Interestingly enough, in Southern hemisphere places, tendrils grew this way whereas in the Northern hemisphere tendrils grew anti-clockwise, as does the water flow in the plug hole of a bath? I am in my 50's and have only just learned this interesting fact about why things grow either clockwise or anti-clockwise. Thank you for this informative video, I look forward to growing my first wisteria bonsai, I am sure one of many to come thanks to your wisdom :)
Kdybych umela tocit a vkladat videa, videl byste tvarovani smutecni vrby. Asi nejlepsi je nechat vetve volne 3-4 roky bez strihani. Vetve ztloustnou, vyzeniu dlouhe pruty, tim jsou tezsi a samy se sklaneji dolu. Pak trichu prostrihat a podle vzhledu dotvarovat dratem. Jen na kratkou dobu, vrba rychle tloustne a drat by se zarezal. Vrby pestuji v suibanech, tvorim ostruvek s vrbou a kolem jezirko.
I got three from Aldi this year 2 with the label "wisteria sinensis pink." 1 is for the garden, and kept 2 for bonsai 1 I've cleaned top soil away on has stunning all around nebari absolutely excellent find!, it's leaning to one side in its original pot with it's Nebari on show i didn't see any of this until I cleaned a bit of the topsoil away! Aldi wisteria are amazing. They sell a couple of varieties, but I found this unofficial name on these, so I got two of the dwarf variety. The other is already training up a massive trellis!
Peter, love the video and the info, just one suggestion however, you may benefit from investing in a lapel microphone such as a Shure or RODE, etc. It's very difficult to hear you when a plane is flying overhead or your cameraman is too far away from you, or when the wind is blowing. Just a thought.
I brought my Wisteria into the house because it's getting cold in New England. Today I looked at it to see if it needed water and it was covered in spider mites 😭. Luckily I have some spider mite spray, and I'll continue to watch it. When I bought it, it was just a stick, and now it has leaved out pretty nicely, no blooms yet though. I can't wait to see if/when it blooms.
Great info Peter. We have a couple of wisteria - a larger garden plant next to my arbour/Japanese style tea house and a much smaller plant bought specifically to bonsai at a future point. The information here will be very useful in managing these trees. 🙏
I have a wisteria from seed since 3 years now and i'm keeping it fairly small but always try/error, atoday i was wondering "when the hell and how am i supposed to cut this plant" well, glad to see peter chan got my back
Great video and I can't wait to start a wisteria bonsai...the flowers are just spectacular. What type of soil mix did you find has the highest success rate? Thanks again for another great video.

This video inspire me so much.... i have 2 nice pices of chinese wisteria 1st year in my collection - and now am thinking what to do with 2 meters long shots :D
Question. So you mentioned at 7:48 about the vine going around clockwise and that it is sinensis. At 17:50 you mention that it’s Japanese going clockwise on the tree. Just curious which is which. Also, how else can you tell the Japanese and Chinese wisteria apart? Looking to buy one
Apparently, they are super easy to air-layer. This is exciting news to me :) A word of warning on sawing Wisteria - the wood is toxic and carcinogenic, so absolutely wear a lot of protective equipment, and do not try to make sculptures out of the wood. Wisteria wood is often used to imitate persimmon wood, because it is so inexpensive and easy to grow compared to persimmon - but yeah, toxic furniture is not fun to own.
Btw, if you grow one in the backyard, and the wind knocked it or a branch down, how do you protect yourself and neighbors from it? Just curious because they're such beautiful trees that I might want too have in the future
@@ms.pirate Just to be clear - mostly the wood dust or exposed core wood is dangerous, because it has a habit of decomposing into a toxic dust over time. If you have a large Wisteria, you need to make sure it grows over stable support. You can freely prune or air layer it whenever you feel like it - they are quite robust. Just don't let it become a danger to you or your neighbor :)
@@MrTheWaterbear got it, thank you!!! I had too ask because Its my first time hearing that its poisonous. (I just edited the other reply a little, I might want one, but not sure because were I'm at)
@@MrTheWaterbear one more thing, what do I do too the branches too make sure too keep myself and everyone safe? Compost, trash, or calling some people, who specializes in toxic chemicals too remove it safely?
Oh also. I live in central california, and have a friend that gave me an old beat up wisteria. When would you recommend i dig it up. Thanks in advance.
Hi Ken, I have a number of Bonsai.. probably only 6 wisteria. One of which has a knotted root, probably my best one but I worry it will choke itself in time. Should I tackle the root nibari now and remove the choker or will it be fine without intervention? If it were any other root system I would have done so but so many Wisteria I deal with on houses seem to manage but they are bigger plants under less stress. Thanks for this video it was very helpful!
Hi Peter!! I love your videos, and the effort you make to share your knowledge with us. Thank you!! I do have a question for you: Can you air layer Wisteria? Any advice for us on doing that, if it IS possible? Lots of love, Peter!!

They air layer very easily. Some forty or more years ago before I came to Herons, I used to beg my neighbour's permission to airliner their Wisteria to make into bonsai. I made many plants that way.

Peter thank you for this amazing video. I was wondering how long does it normally take to get flowers on the Wisteria? My tree is now about 10 years old however I haven't gotten any flowers. Thank you for your outstanding work.
I heard that it can take several years for it to flower if grown from seed, I haven't grown any from seed as yet so I cannot say for sure, I had two purple ones in my last house which flowered within the first two years but these were bought from a nursery.
Which of the soils that you guys sell should I buy to repot my jade bonsai? I'm having trouble picking one because there are so many out there. He is mostly indoors and I have a grow light and he's in a west facing window.
I got my 1st wisteria yesterday and its just a single trunk about 16 inches tall with 5 branches all at the top 1/3 of the tree. Looks like its 8-12 months old, I was wondering if I could cut it in half without killing it and if that would produce 2 new shoots below my cut?
Thank you! I was wondering how far back to cut. Here wisteria sinensus (?) is behind one of the row houses. The man never pruned it, maybe cutting every 3 years or so to keep the walk way clear. It stopped flowering. I cut it back a lot and discovered the next year that many long tendrils do not over winter in a colder climate, so I had many dead canes instead of flowers.
Asi rezal ve spatnem obdobi, kdy mela nasazeny kvetni pupeny. Moje zatim nekvete, le myslim, ze by se mela rezat po odvetu, ne pred jarem. Jako napr. Azalky

At what age/size would you pot the seedlings? I have ones that are a similar size and age to yours - at the end of the video - and I'm not sure when to pot. Any advice from anyone would be appreciated!
My advice is to go to a regular nursery instead and then form it into bonsai yourself. I rarely if ever find it in the specialist nurseries but it's common in normal nurseries
Can you just put the pot sitting in water about 1/3 way up in summer? That way watered always. My willows sit in water all summer & winter. Does great,
@@milenaruzickova8026 I live in Chicago, Il. U.S.A. The one is in my waterfall lower, type pot with a bubbler in the soil with the roots staying wet. The others are in my Microclimates with leaves on top of the soil. They have been surviving for 3 years already. The one exposed has no leaves, just the airstone or bubbler in the bottom of the soil. So far so good. Don't give up on yours though.
I have been reading that following the very hot, dry period we experienced in the UK caused many trees and shrubs to react as if it were autumn. They simply retracted all the sap from the leaves as a defence and the existing leaves just turned brown. There was no amount watering that could stop this. Strangely, some of my plants did this, and others didn't, even two of the same species reacted differently to each other. They all got watered the same.
It's kinda interesting because a lack of watering can also cause this. Essentially the water fails to reach the apex and the plant just rejects that part and focuses on the parts it can keep alive

Strangely, some of my plants did this, and others didn't, even two of the same species reacted differently to each other. They all got watered the same.
It's kinda interesting because a lack of watering can also cause this. Essentially the water fails to reach the apex and the plant just rejects that part and focuses on the parts it can keep alive
Uz jsem psala vyse. Na leto bud presadit do misky bez otvoru nebo vlozit cely kvetinac do lavoru s vodou. Podobne jako vrby.
I've tried growing Wisteria from seed and cuttings, no luck. I tried different methods, soils, etc. They sprout and in a month they're dead.
Can you leave Wisteria in water? Or will that cause root rot.
Yes the roots can rot if left too long in water. I keep mine in water trays only at the height of Summer ie about 3 months.
@@peterchan3100 Oh okay, thank you Peter ☺️
I keep wisteria in pod since couple of years. I didn't see even one flower. I don't know why???

Can I chop a Wisteria on the trunk and it grow back as I don't want it so big its still in a pot but about 2ft tall
Yes you can
Do Wisteria stay outside all year long? Are they winter tolerant?
The one he showed by the waterfall was in the ground
Wisteria can handle pretty much anything you can throw at them. Very hardy.
Thanks for the replies. As Bonsai, I wasnt sure if they needed to be sheltered in winter. Thanks again.

Cool
🔥💕👍
…and now I’d like to have a wisteria! 😅
Word of warning, they can go mad and be very invasive. I'd say they are fine grown in pots though
We have hundreds of them at Herons. Many are from Japan with rare colours.
I'm not pruning mine anymore because I nearly pruned them in to extinction and they are taking tooooo long to recover I'm heavy handed with the pruners....lol......
👍👍👍
Just found springtails on an indoor ficus. Anyone have any tips to get rid of them them? Any insecticide that's safe?
soap or oil.
TBH springtails won't harm the plant anyway, but if you must, soap and water
@@Stettafire thank you to both replies, just worried they'll spread beyond the plant to infest elsewhere....
Oil is presumably neem oil, soap can be plain washing up liquid?
@@luigiluigi2098 Yes washing up liquid used for the dishes is fine. Will not harm your plants at all.
Yes I do believe it is neem oil, but I've never tried neem oil
They're kinda cute! 🤣
👍👌🙂
Mr Paul Chan, somehow remind me of The Julia Child of Bonsai.
