Wisteria

Prized for the beauty of their spectacular pendulous racemes of fragrant pea-like flowers in spring and early summer, Wisterias are hardy, fast growing deciduous climbers. Easy to grow in sun or part-shade in well-drained soils, Wisterias may be trained into a large tree, on a wall, arch or pergola, or as a freestanding half standard. These woody vines require a strong, sturdy structure which will be able to support their heavy weight at maturity. While Wisterias may be slow to establish and take 3-5 years to begin flowering, but once they start, they never fail to produce a dramatic floral display!

Wisteria 'Burford' (Japanese Wisteria)

Heavenly scented, award-winning Wisteria 'Burford' (Japanese Wisteria) is a deciduous climber with a long season of interest. In late spring or early summer, it produces masses of very long, drooping clusters, up to 16 in. long (40 cm), with fragrant, pea-like flowers, that are a combination of pale lilac-blue and deep purple with a yellow spot in the throat.
