The Wisteria frutescens ‘Amethyst Falls’ is the solution for gardeners seeking the allure of wisteria but without the rigorous pruning schedule. Swift to establish, it exudes the iconic, aromatic pea-like panicles that wisteria is celebrated for. Its growth remains compact, especially when potted, making it ideal for patios or balconies, providing both beauty and fragrance from May to July.
Whether you have a sprawling garden or a quaint balcony, this variety of wisteria is adaptable. When planted directly into the ground, it has the potential to stretch to heights of 3-5m. However, for those who opt for container planting, growth can be conveniently restricted, maintaining a compact size without compromising on the blooms.
Key Features:
Bloom: Aromatic pea-like panicles blooming from May to July.
Growth: Manageable top growth, especially when container planted.
Soil Preference: Thrives best in well-drained soil.
Care Recommendations: Ensure regular watering, particularly during its initial growth stages. Although pruning is reduced compared to other wisteria varieties, occasional trimming can enhance bloom production.
