How to #prune a #wisteria. Both winter and summer pruning for maximum #blossom

Please visit my website and Garden Shop here: https://www.marksgardenuk.com/

In this video I give an overview of the #pruning regime for the wisteria in order to maximise the blossom.

I also provide some useful hints and tips for maintenance.

Be patient, the wisteria can take a few seasons to come into #flower but it's worth the wait. Eventually you will be rewarded with a cascading waterfall of beautiful #nectar filled #blooms which provide a food source for #polinating insects, look amazing and have a beautiful scent.

Prune the wisteria twice a year. The first time prune it back to five #leaf sets, do this approximately one month after the blossom has disappeared and it has produced many #leafy #tendrils. Then in the late winter or very early spring prune the same branches back to two #buds which will encourage many #flowering #spurs.

Make sure you keep a control of the size and scope of your plant because it can become leggy and take over, it is quite invasive when it gets going.
