The POs said that the vines was there when they moved in 20 years ago, but has flourished since they put up the pergola 5 years ago. It certainly loves to climb!<BR/>The Royal Horticultural Society has a great page on pruning Wisteria, if you are interested: http://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profiles0605/wisteria.aspAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28689860.post-85787112236355191532007-04-11T10:40:00.000-07:002007-04-11T10:40:00.000-07:00Rachel- I believe mine is purple, which seems fair...Rachel- I believe mine is purple, which seems fairly common.

Our, I hear, is white and I just spent an afternoon doing a hard prune because it was threatening the house and surrounding plants. Hopefully I didn't stress it too much but I hear they are very hardy and do better when pruned well. Good luck and keep posting picts!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
