It's beautiful 👌🏼 was it there when you bought the house @junebensted or did you plant it?

It was already here . We have been here 9 years . Difficult to know how long the wisteria has been here but probably over 50 years we think @rachelbrooks

I thought it looked well established! @junebensted they are a glorious plant and I would love one but I am always put off by the pruning 'rules' I am a bit scissor happy and would worry that I'm not doing it properly! 😬😬

It is pretty easy . You cut back to three new leaf stems on each branch after flowering . Simple! Being established ours can take hard pruning and still come back vigorously . This year though we had some die back after flowering ( we haven't cut back this year yet) but before the leaves came in . Don't know why but it caused some anxious moments in this household I can tell you ! We are keeping an eye on it ! @rachelbrooks

Looks lovely and lush now though 👍🏼 well , that pruning doesn't sound too tricky...even for me 🙊 do you only do it once a year? @junebensted
