Masses of fragrant, pea-like, lilac-blue to pale violet-blue flowers in May and June, followed in hot summers by velvety, green seed-pods. This beautiful Chinese wisteria is a particularly free-flowering variety, renowned for its superior fragrance. Ideal for training over a sunny wall or strong pergola, to ensure success the twining stems need careful pruning.
This plant has been vegetatively propagated, so will flower earlier than those grown from seed. - Garden care: After planting prune back the leading shoot to 90cm (36in) above the ground. In the first growing season tie in lateral shoots and cut back sub-lateral shoots to two or three buds. During the first winter cut back laterals by one third and sub-laterals by two or three buds
- Humans/Pets: Harmful if eaten
