white wisteria
The white wisteria has a stronger fragrance than the purple one. It will perfume the air over an area of at least half an acre when it reaches it’s maximum bloom a few days from now. Standing under it is almost intoxicating.

I bought a white one, too, because of its more intense scent. Mine just started blooming this week, but it is still only a few years old and doesn’t have many flowers. How old is yours? Wow! The racemes are impressively long…like Japanese wisteria.

This year, I planted Freesia in a rainbow which produced the blooms you see at the right.

The wisteria is one of several plants inherited from the former owner. It was already mature when we moved here in 1993. It is about the same size as it was then. Every year I probably chop about half the plant off. It’s not unusual in late summer to suddenly find a 12-foot runner that I hadn’t even noticed before. Some of the racemes are as much as ten inches long.

I just lucked onto this website and feasted on the beautiful close-up of those lovely blooms. My white wisteria, a cutting given me by my sweet mother-in-law, got into the habit of blooming twice in a season. When we moved, circumstances prevented me from getting a cutting from that heirloom and I miss it so much. I’ve often thought about traveling there, meeting the new owners, and asking for a little piece of my past. Thanks for the memory!
