It is one of my favorite flowering vines that remind me of southern plants or landscapes, wisely. What could be more beautiful than a hearth in your cemetery than a twisted, cypress stem supported by white, pink, purple or purple flowers? There are two kinds of wisdom. Japanese sage is hardy in USDA zones 4 through 8, while Chinese sage is hardy in zones 4 through 9. The differences between these two vines are flowers. If you want flowers that open slowly and have longer leaves, choose Japanese Wisteria. But if you are looking for a vine that will give you one big show with the flowers opening at the same time, Chinese Wisteria is the one to choose. The average homeowner can plant and grow wise vines.
Wisteria prefers to grow in an area that has full sun exposure. They need even stronger to grow, like a tree or trees from your house, garage or shed. Vines can be aggressive and if left to grow on a structure or tree. Although they look beautiful growing against a house or a tree, these vines can be scrutinized by sturdy blocks. It can also slowly kill a tree or bush by suffocation.
Prepare the planting site
Place the planting removing vegetation in an area of three feet or more if the root ball is really big. Dig a hole in the center of the cleared area that is two to three times as wide as the wisteria pot. Keep the planting height the same as the Wisteria root ball. With a spade or shovel, scrape the sides and bottom of the planting hole. This loosens the soil so that the roots can penetrate beyond the planting hole.
Amend the soil removed from the hole with 3 to 4 inches of organic compost. Stomach makes two for wisteria vines. Good irrigation so the roots don’t sit in water, and soil nutrients adds nutrients to the vines. I have to grow up.
Wisteria plant
Before planting wisdom, fill the planting hole with water. When water seeps into the ground, it provides deep water for the roots to seek. Allow the water to drain naturally.
Remove the wisteria root ball from the container and place it in the center of the planting hole. Back fill with amended soil in the hole around the root ball. When the hole is filled properly, firm the ground in place to remove air pockets. Fill in the trench and put the ground in place with your feet.
Watering clothes
Wisteria water thoroughly. To keep wisteria growing for the first time, give them at least an inch of water every week, unless your area receives ample rainfall. After the wisteria is established, only water if the leaves have failed.
Mulch
Place a 2 inch layer around the Wisteria organic-mulch. Mulch helps retain moisture and keeps weeds from growing. Going down to the ground, it adds nutrients. Add mulch once a year or more often as it sheds.
prunation
If you think your wise, you will do this late, or early spring before buds form. This is also the time to remove dead wood or dense branches. When you think, he will cut the side branches, leaving around the root growth in the trunk. Remove any dishes found at the base of the plant. You can also think of wisteria after the summer has finished growing. Trim young shoots to keep the vine manageable.
