Tips for Care:

Taking care of and planting Summer Cascade Wisterias isn’t too stressful! Your yard will be magical in no time.

• Provide your wisteria with full sun as they grow fast and want nourishment! The lavender shades shine in the sunlight.
• Like most trees, plant your wisteria in well-drained soil. This will ensure the soil is still moist, but won’t drown the roots and cause root rot!
• Prune in the late winter for a happy and healthy Wisteria!
