Growing wisteria

A very beautiful deciduous vine in your garden can be wisteria. This plant is very beautiful thanks to its dense leaves and purple flowers, collected in clusters, which are carefully twisted from the branches of the vines. And although she is picky enough to care for, and growing wisteria is equivalent to growing a lemon or orange from a seed, this vine with amazing flowers can become a real decoration of the garden.

In order for wisteria to grow and delight its owners with its unusual tropical appearance, it must be provided with a bright place in the garden or in the area where the plant will grow, as well as fertile and moist soil. Wisteria can withstand cold up to -20 degrees, so wisteria can be found quite often in the southern regions of Russia.

The plant requires compliance with a few more rules. For example, this plant is very fond of water, so wisteria should be watered regularly. But it should be borne in mind that the leaves of the plant are poisonous and it is advisable not to place a pond with live fish or any other domestic animals that feed on leaves near its location.

Wisteria cultivation begins by sowing seeds in the fall after harvest from the mother tree or in the spring without stratification. Seeds are planted in the soil to a depth of 2-3 cm. But acquired young plants, as well as stem or root cuttings, can also be planted. When purchasing seedlings, it is imperative to make sure that they are grafted, which means the plant will quickly take root and will bloom very abundantly with its unusual color.
