Japanese Wisteria
Wisteria floribunda 'Domino'
- There's something so very special about a well-established wisteria, trailing its pendulous flower sprays over a wall or pergola and radiating its lovely scent throughout the air. And as far as wisteria varieties go, 'Domino' is one of the very best!
- This climber produces large, fragrant racemes in a purplish-blue hue during the summer, which contrast wonderfully with the plant's light green, compound pinnate foliage
- There are several options available to you when it comes to growing your wisteria, but the most usual way is to train it as an espalier against a sunny, south-facing wall
- Even in winter, when this plant has shed its leaves, the woody stems add fantastic visual and textural interest to any surface they grow on
- A deserved recipient of the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit, 'Domino' has been recognised as performing particularly well in British gardens
