Glicina americana - Wisteria frutescens 'Longwood Purple' (flori parfumate)

Wisteria frutescens 'Longwood Purple', also known as American wisteria 'Longwood Purple', is a climbing plant prized for its fragrant, deep purple flowers. This variety produces clusters of flowers that appear in the spring or summer season, adding a pop of color and fragrance to the garden.

Compared to other Wisteria species, Wisteria frutescens 'Longwood Purple' is more hardy and less invasive. While Wisteria sinensis (Chinese wisteria) and Wisteria floribunda (Japanese wisteria) are known for their rapid growth and potentially invasive nature, Wisteria frutescens tends to be more docile in growth and easier to control.

Additionally, compared to Asian varieties, Wisteria frutescens 'Longwood Purple' blooms later, which can extend the garden's blooming season if these plants are grown together.

Like all wisteria, 'Longwood Purple' prefers a sunny location and well-drained soil. It requires regular maintenance by pruning to control growth and stimulate flowering.
