Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Collectors! Here is a very rare, miniature, tiny-leafed wisteria forming a thicket of 8-12 inch short, twiggy branches, eventually forming a dense shrub about three feet high and wide. One of the best for bonsai. It doesn't flower regularly, but occasionally produces tiny clusters of faintly scented lavender flowers. Loves full sun. Grow in moist, well-drained, fertile soil.
A wisteria that won't devour the neighbor's garage. This one is petite in all respects, growing slowly to form a dense shrub, to 3' tall and wide, of twiggy branches with tiny leaves. In spring, the sweetly scented, lavender flowers appear before the small, deep green leaves. Often 2 or 3' tall and wide, though an occasional flowering stem is taller. Full to part sun in moist, well-drained soil with summer water. Frost hardy in USDA zone 5.
