Growing & Maintenance Tips for Wisteria macrostachys 'Aunt Dee'

Wisteria macrostachys 'Aunt Dee' is adaptable to moist areas in your yard as well as higher ground. To care for this plant, keep the soil moist but not overly wet after initial planting; once established, it becomes more drought-tolerant, reducing the need for frequent watering. Fertilize your wisteria once a year in the fall for the first three to four years to ensure it receives essential nutrients. Although this variety grows at a moderate pace, it can still produce dense foliage throughout the season, so don’t hesitate to prune it as needed to maintain its shape and control its growth.
