Wisteria sinensis, 'Prolific' Chinese wisteria
Variety description: This precocious form of Chinese wisteria is noted for blooming at a young age. Vibrant color and extremely fragrant.
Size at Maturity: Depends on desired form. If left to its own devices, wisteria will grow into a 20-30' vine. Can be grown along fences, up pergolas and trellises. Structures must be strong to support weight of mature plants. Size can be greatly restrained and flowering increased by summer pruning. Can be grown as a 'tree' form standard.
