How to plant and care for wisteria
Choose a planting location: When planting wisteria, it is best to choose a location based on the wall and slightly off the main entrance to provide shade and block light in the house so that the tree can climb better. You don’t need too much light, but you should position the trellis slightly higher.
Select high and well-drained soil for planting to avoid waterlogging and help the tree grow faster.
Planting soil: Choose a deep hole for planting. It is best to plant wisteria in front of the house because its roots are very strong and need a deep layer of soil to support the tree’s growth. If the soil layer is shallow, the tree will grow slowly. You can also plant wisteria in pots, but they will grow very slowly, with small arbors but still blooming.
Regular watering and fertilizing: Wisteria plants love water and fertilizers. You need to water at least once a day when there is no rain to ensure the tree has enough moisture to grow. Water evaporates quickly due to high temperature in summer, so you can water once in the morning and once in the evening.
Use manure or composted manure to fertilize the ornamental plant once a month to stimulate faster growth.
Regular pruning: Wisteria plants when pruned and trained to grow into beautiful shapes, the arbor becomes more beautiful and the flowers become more abundant. To grow into a tree, you need to prune some side branches in the early stages and leave one or two main trunks. When the wisteria grows larger, you can leave more branches and fix them in the places you want. If you want to create an arbor to sit under and enjoy the shade of the flowers, you need to create a trellis for the ornamental plant to grow up.
Wisteria is a beautiful and captivating ornamental plant for many people. Wisteria is so enchanting that in Japan, there is a wisteria festival attracting a large number of tourists every year. If you have a wisteria arbor, there will probably be many people asking to admire it.
