Notes

'Kimono' Japanese wisteria (Wisteria floribunda 'Kimono') is a vine. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Fragrant flowers open from early to late spring. It sits low on the menu for deer. This climber grows at a rapid rate, so give it a strong support.

Pairs well with Bowl of Cream peony, Gladiator ornamental onion, and Royal fern.
