CODE:Wisteria floribunda Violacea-Plena ‘Double Japanese’
A highly decorative, deciduous, fast-growing climber. Double Japanese Wisteria has attractive green foliage on quick growing, twining stems. The stems will find anchor points to wrap around to gain support. Having a trellis or solid wire structure for the plant to grow along/up will help give you a stronger healthier plant. In early Spring, Wisteria ‘Double Japanese’ is decorated in masses of double purple flowers which are highly perfumed and put on a show stopping display. Flowers emerge in large hanging clusters and are bee and bird attracting. Once the flowers have finished the plant can be given an overall prune to encourage thicker, neat growth.

Planting Tips:
Make sure to prepare the soil prior to planting. Mixing in a bag of well-aged animal manure or compost can help to conditions and revitalise tired soil. Make sure to blend with pre-existing soil, mixing together thoroughly. Once the soil has been prepare, dig a hole which is wider, but not deeper, than what the original size of the pot the plant has come in. Position the plant in the hole and backfill any gaps with the excess soil. Give the plant a deep soaking of water to help settle the roots.
If planting into a pot make sure that the container chosen is large enough for the plant being planted. Never pot a plant into a container which is too small. Use a premium quality potting mix as this has all the added fertilisers and wetting agents required for having a healthy plant.
