🪻 Wisteria
Wisteria sinensis
A spectacular, vigorous climber, wisteria blooms April-June. The secret of heavy flowering is the double prune: August on the current year's shoots, then February back to 2-3 buds.

The tips that matter
- Prune TWICE: August (summer shoots cut to 30 cm) + February (same shoots to 2-3 buds) — that is what forces bloom.
- A non-flowering wisteria means too much nitrogen or a seedling plant: always buy a grafted plant, never seed-raised.
- Never let it wind into gutters or shutters: its strength dismantles structures.
