Product description
Our wisteria mix features 3 diferent varieties of the ever popular deciduous climbers. Most wisteria grow on long twining stems, that subsequently develop long drooping pendulous racemes. These flower clusters generally grow to around 60cm long and produce an abundance of colourful, fragrant pea-like flowers from early spring onwards. Our mix features white, rose-pink and blue colours, and when planted side-by-side all 3 plants look fantastic climbing a trellis, providing a wall of multiple attractive colours at the height of summer.
The plants within our Wisteria mix will grow in almost any type of garden, they can be planted in full sun or partial shade and are 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.
Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Instructions
Top Tip
Prune wisteria regularly to encourage healthy growth and more blooms. Cut back long stems in late winter and remove dead or tangled wood to improve air circulation and support better flowering.
How to Water
Water wisteria deeply after planting and regularly during the first year to establish roots. Once established, water during dry spells, but allow the soil to dry between waterings. Avoid waterlogging, as wisteria prefers well-drained soil.
How to Plant
Choose a sunny spot with well-draining soil. Dig a large hole and amend the soil with compost. Place the plant, ensuring the root is level with the ground, backfill with soil, and water thoroughly. Provide a sturdy support structure, like a trellis or pergola, for growth.
