Blooming Wisteria - purple wisteria blooms
 

Photo Description
Here is a closeup of wisteria blooms. It is not a very good picture, really. It means a lot to me, though. I grew this plant from seed. It is not unusual to have a 15 year wait period between seed and bloom. A good reason to start wisteria from cuttings rather than seed.

Add to that the fact I kept this plant in a small container most of its life and you'll have the reasons it took 20 years to see this plant in full bloom. It did tease me with one little bloom last year. From here on out, it should be loaded with blooms every year.

Oh, an interesting fact. I took a big whiff of one of these blooms. Never before did I know; they have the scent of Dentyne chewing gum.

Id be happy to send you as many cuttings as youd like. Its growing everywhere on our property! It grows wild here. But you have to keep it under control. We named it wisteria acres.

Sometimes I see these at Lowes, marked down really low.

Beautiful but be careful where you plant it. It is invasive. The runners are just that: runners and they attach to everything.
