Photo of my wisteria

EmmaG · 10-05-2006, 07:49 PM

I always wanted one of these but our bungalow hasn't really got anywhere to have one growing up it, and I read a good about container planting and it had a picture and instructions on how to grow a wisteria in a pot, so a few years on here this is what my wisteria now looks like, I will try and get a better photo at the weekend when it is more in flower

I hope everybody likes it

That's so pretty Emma - but don't they take an age to grow!!! Good think is you can take yours with you when you move

My neighbour has one all along her fence and it's in full flower at the moment . . . it's quite a large mature one so we all get to enjoy it!

This one has grown quite a bit in the last four years

obviously I prune it back each year as well, as I won't want the expense of putting it in a new pot!! lol

That's a coincidence Emma, I have just been reading about Wisterias in a garden mag. I think they are beautiful in full flower and didn't realise you could grow them in pots.
How long after you planted it did it first flower?

It's very pretty Emma ...

Thanks Fran,

Mags it flowered the first year it was in the pot and it cost me about £10, pot cost about £30 though!! lol

It turned out to be an expensive wisteria in the end then!

I bought a large pot a couple of months ago.....it was originally priced at £39.99 and I got it for £18.99! I was quite pleased with my bargain!

Very nice! Any idea how tall it will grow in the pot?

EmmaG · 10-05-2006, 09:02 PM

Hreow I don't think it will get much taller perhaps another foot or so,.

Just found an old photo of it dated 3rd May 2003

As you can see it hasn't grown in height much in the last three years

Yes Mags, it did turn out to be a little bit expensive in the end, but worth it
