Notes
'Texas Purple' Japanese wisteria (Wisteria floribunda 'Texas Purple') is a climbing vine. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Fragrant, bluish purple flowers open from early to late spring. Deer rarely make it their first choice. It grows fast, so give it a strong support.
Pairs well with Climbing hydrangea, May Night salvia, and Feather reed grass.
