wisteria

Genus: Wisteria.

Species: Wisteria sinensis.

1 inherited, ancient
Severely pruned 2010 and began training along fence.
June 2011 has created a 4m 'hedge' eastways along the fence and has almost half covered the pergola.
Doesn't seem to want to go toward the west at all.
Sends out underground runners which have to be controlled frequently.

1 planted 2010 on north facing wall, making good growth.

1 planted April 2011 on pergola, making good growth.
