🎶I am the one and only🎶 #wisteria #japanese-wisteria #wisteria-floribunda #wisteria-alba

Very pretty 🤍

One means more next year..👍🏼😉

Oh I want one ❤️

@KOutdoors I got it stuck in my own head too 🤣

@hkyfvr thanks Diane 🤍

@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom I do hope so Elaine 🤞🏻one flower across 3 plants is so disappointing 😩

@vinny8000 be prepared to wait a while for flowers Gary 🤣

@KOutdoors too catchy! 🥹

I don't mind that Kerry it looks like it's worth the wait @kez001uk 😊

@vinny8000 you have more patience than me 😆

Lol Kerry I'm the most impatient person you could ever meet. You should see me at the checkout in shops 🤣🤣 . Saying that it's not the waiting that gets me it's the idiots that always seem to be ahead of me in the queue. The only patience I ever have is with my plants and my dog 🤣🤣🤣 @kez001uk

Is it fragrant? 😊

@cyndi thank you Cyndi 😁 there’s another lot on top of the arch too. So excited there’s going to be more than one this year 😂

@ublaszko it is but nothing like the wisteria I’ve smelled before. It has a green smell, if that makes sense 😜

I've read about the green smell the other day but not sure what it is. 😁

@ublaszko I suppose I’d describe it as squished grass with a hint of spice 😂

I think I have flowers 🤔 #wisteria #japanese-wisteria #wisteria-floribunda #wisteria-alba

Interesting 👍 Different flower buds to mine. I'm a big disappointed with mine, as it if has nowhere as many flower buds as last year.

How exciting 👍😊

@jeatacake I remember it had one last year but there’s a fair few sprung up out of nowhere 😁 is yours growing over your new arch?

@pelly it really is 😁 won’t be a display like some I’ve seen on here but will be it’s first real flowers 🤩

Happy dance time 💃💃💃

@alan1111 I did get a little overexcited 😂

The dance will come later 💃

@alan1111 hope so 😂

That's good. The older it gets, the more flowers it should have. Mine is growing alright but nearly all leaves this year. Very few flowers or buds. Not sure why? Maybe tok wet a winter or too dry in spring 🤔

@jeatacake it has been a very dry spring but still disappointing for you given the display you had last year 😐 hiding from the virus maybe 😉😷

😂😂😂

First ever flower 😍

Exciting Kerry!

Very cool Kerry! Ooo I've been dying for some of this. I have some Chinese wisteria the purple variety planted from seedlings I transplanted last year... I even had luck with a couple of seeds sprouting to give me even more... it hasn't gotten big enough to produce flowers... but hopefully next year.... I'm hoping to get some 'Alba' to add as well. Yours is going to be ravishing!

🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳this is how I felt Kerry....after eight years 💜

Yeh 👍👍👍

This will be the start of many. Mine was like this last year, only a few on it. This year, a hundred or more!👌

@valjones-hughes it really is 😁 only got it last year so wasn’t expecting flowers yet. May only be one but it’s a start 😁

@PunkyKy wow! You grew from seedlings 😯 you have some patience! I hope they reward you with flowers very soon 😁 if I manage to get seeds from this one I’d be happy to send you some 😛

@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom oh god, 8 years??? I don’t know how you had the patience 🙈 Excitement is allowed after all that time! 😛🥳🥳

@lovemygarden65 only the one flower but beats none 😁

@jeatacake if mine looks even a fraction of how amazing yours does this year then I’ll be elated!!! It’s a way off yet though 😂

Thank you Kerry 😊 You might be as pleasantly surprised as I was with mine next spring 🤞

It's getting quite tall now! 😄

@ublaszko it’s the only one of the 3 that’s this big. This one just does its own thing now 😂

Wow, you have three of those 😲😂😂 They will get huge once they get going. My garden is too small for even one wisteria 😂😂 It can barely cope with passionflower 😅

@ublaszko have pink, white and blue. This one is in the middle and one either side of it. I don’t plan on letting them get too big, just want them for a few flowers 😛 maybe that’s a good thing because if you had wisteria you’d get frustrated with it growing all over itself 🤣

😂😂😂 Yeah, I definitely have a preference for well - behaved climbers (if there ever was such a thing 😂)

I'm still waiting for mine to bloom😣

@ublaszko if anyone can make them behave it’s you Urszula 😉

😉😂😂😂😂😂

@Denise16 mine haven’t flowered this year either 😞 think we will be waiting til next spring now

🤞I've watched lots of YouTube videos on how to prune to get more blooms but none of the videos seem to address how to prune young ones that haven't bloomed yet. Really don't know know if I'm doing it right🙈

@Denise16 I know exactly how you feel. Mine are young plants too and I’m stuck on how to prune them. Going to have to investigate and if I find out anything I’ll let you know 😛

My arch like this one bit the dust today in the wind. Had my runner beans growing up it 😢

@gjones I can’t wait til they cover their arches 😁😁😁
