I don’t know where you live, but I’m in Kalamazoo, MI, zone 6a. I bought my wisteria at either Lowe’s or Home Depot 3 summers ago. This is it right now.

Beware of wisteria. We had vines for many years and 8 years after removing them are still getting runners growing back. You will never get rid of this invasive plant, which is a lot of work to maintain properly with pruning and cleanup

Agree! It is very invasive. It climbed up the gutters, around outside light fixtures and on to my porch roof. Although it looked gorgeous with its long 'bunches' of lavender flowers drooping down and made a beautiful backdrop for family photos, we had to remove it completely, since pruning made it more tenacious. But as one of your readers said the runners keep growing back.

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
Thank u for all ur information. I have a small yard that needs a musical to get it together. Its all crab grass and weeds. I just moved to this property and need to start from scratch. I'm 65 and live on limited budget but want to tackle this on my own. Any suggestions on where to start on even getting rid of the weeds with natural or household products?
