Oh, that Wisteria!


Another Sunday spent out and about exploring the local area. This morning we were walking around the historical Kemp house and this climbing Wisteria caught my eye.


Last time we were here it was completely bare and looked like it had just had a good pruning.


I think this one is Wisteria Sinensis and it's deciduous over Winter. It only grows from October through to February which is our Spring/Summer period.

Pretty isn't it?

it is pretty, and does take a while to recover from serious pruning..it can be a bit of a thug, however, when it comes to damaging buildings!

Gorgeous! I love Wisteria Amy, it looks so pretty when in bloom like this. I have some in my back garden but it hasn't been too successful unfortunately 😊
