Wisteria White

Description

Wisteria Alba is a fast-growing deciduous climbing variety, with stems developing 60cm long drooping racemes that vigorously supply an abundance of pea-like, lilac-tinged white flowers upon light green leaflets. The flowers are fragrant, and are packed into elegant looking clusters that give off an amazing effect at the height of summer, the flowers eventually develop a yellow tinge as it approaches autumn. As a climber, these will look great as they weave their way up a wall or trellis, providing a wall of bright colour that towers over your garden.

Alba will grow in almost any type of garden, it can be planted in full sun or partial shade and it is suited to any type of soil provided it is moist but well drained. To ensure prominent flowering year after year, prune back the twining stems right after flowering has finished in late summer, and once again at the height of winter.
