Growth spurt... by marlboromaam

Growth spurt...

Shot in black and white. My wild wisteria is in its first spring growth spurt. I'll prune it back at least three times before the fall.

A friend dug up a small seedling on the side of the road and brought it to me over 12 years ago. It takes over one side of the deck railing and has to be cut back.
That’s one hearty plant!

They have a wonderful scent

@mamabec That's a fact!

@dkellogg Not as nice as the wild jasmine, David. I think the wisteria is very strong like a cheap cologne. It can give me a headache if I smell it too long. But they are beautiful when they bloom and the first scent of it is pretty nice.

@365jgh I wish this one had bloomed this year, but the late frost killed the young buds. That makes two years in a row for a late frost. Hope yours fairs better!
