I know that it takes a long time for wisteria to bloom .....I think it has to get stabilized in the place you put it cause it took mine longer that to bloom so just give it some time and it will bloom ...now mine blooms every year and it has been planted for about 12 years and it bloomed for the first time about 3 years ago
Prune it back now and again in February - I did mine that never bloomed and had so many blooms I couldn't believe it!
Also start fertilizing in early spring and continue through summer.
Trim it drastically every year! The more I cut mine back in late summer or fall, the prettier it is in the spring!
Prune it hard now and wait for spring. Ours didn't bloom until the sixth spring, after we'd run it over with the tractor in the fall. We prune it every year now and have to prop it up in the spring for all the flowers.
I read about this before I went out and bought one. It said it can take 20 yrs for it to bloom. My Wisteria is now 8 yrs old and this year it had a few blooms. I make sure I give it plenty of fertilizer in spring and in summer. I love your arbo, it looks nice with the vines. Soon you will get flowers, and so will I. :)
cut it back and DO NOT fertilize. It will bloom!
We had the same problem, but our son accidentally sliced the main trunk when he was mowing the lawn. The cut was pretty deep. We were so upset as it had been a gift from my father-in-law and he had since passed away. To our surprise, it bloomed like crazy and has been doing so for the past 40 years.
There are a couple of things I can think of to help your wisteria bloom. One is proper pruning, done at the right times to force the plant to put energy into creating blooms rather than just vegetative growth. There are articles on this on line. ... Another is the possibility that your soul has too much nitrogen. Don't feed the soil around your wisteria any nitrogen. To correct this possibility, you can treat the soil with phosphate.
Boy do I have the same problem. In 2008 I planted my Wisteria and I'm still waiting. Reading your answers and I shall follow some of the advice given here. Appreciate your responses. Phosphate, prune and fertilize. I have a wonderful pergola that would look absolutely fantastic, if only I could get the blooms. Perhaps I should also remove the shade fabric I covered the pergola while waiting for the "magic moment". It is growing and extending itself, just no blooms.
