Planting & Care

Choose a site with full sun and well-drained soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and at the same depth. Set the plant so the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface, backfill, and water thoroughly. Provide a sturdy trellis, arbor, or pergola at planting time, as wisteria twines aggressively and needs strong support. Water regularly during the first growing season to help roots establish, then reduce frequency once established. Apply a layer of mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds, keeping mulch away from the stem.

Prune wisteria in late winter and again in summer to control growth and encourage flower bud formation. Avoid over-fertilizing with nitrogen, which can promote foliage at the expense of blooms. With patience and proper pruning, this heirloom vine can reward you with spectacular spring displays for years to come.
