Aunt Dee Kentucky Wisteria

The Aunt Dee Kentucky Wisteria is a beautiful climbing plant with twining stems covered in glossy, dark-green leaves. In spring it blooms on the bare branches, carrying 8 to 12-inch hanging clusters of fragrant, lilac-blue pea-like blossoms. This vigorous plant can cover a fence over 20 feet long, or grow up into a tree, so give it enough room. It is a gorgeous choice for covering a pergola, or for growing on a trellis mounted on a wall. It can even be grown in a pot or as a bonsai, with training, and as a free-standing shrub with minimal support.

• Large hanging clusters of lilac-blue flowers in spring
• Beautiful feathery foliage on twining stems
• Perfect for covering fences and pergolas
• Cold-hardy and blooms in zone 4
• Easily grown, even in wet soils
