Spring is here and early blooming perennials are on display. My mother shared a picture from her farm, one of springs currently blooming plants. Wisteria is a genus of the legume plant family. It is native to China, Korea, Japan and the Eastern United States.
The flowers are fragrant floral clusters that come in pink, white, purple and violet. Cultivating wisteria can be challenging. The plant can propagate via seeds which are produced in pods or from soft or hardwood cuttings. Wisteria is capable of growing in poor soil conditions but prefers fertile, moist, well draining soil. Maturation requires a few years but it is well worth the wait. Enjoy!
