Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A gorgeous 20-30' vine found in Santa Monica, California and introduced through the arboretum at UCLA. Selected in for its large, sweetly-scented and deep-purple clusters of pea-like flowers, this cultivar makes a beautiful show in spring whether twining over an arbor in the garden or trained against the wall of a house; this variety is also likely to bloom at a younger age than others. S/M
Known to be drought tolerant. This wisteria has racemes that are 8" in length and violet of great beauty, the wings are blue and accented in white. Faintly scented and early blooming.
