Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This lovely blue Wisteria was originally propagated from the beautiful vine growing at Burford House in Tenbury Wells, England. The gorgeous, fragrant, bi-color, lilac and violet-blue flowers appear in spring on enormous, drooping racemes that are up to three feet long. Dark-green compound leaves grace the long twining stems all summer; Wisteria require a very strong support and full sun is needed for best flowering. S/M
