Wisteria floribunda ‘Hon-beni’ at Digging Dog
Pink flowered Japanese WisteriaWisteria
Wisteria floribunda ‘Hon-beni’
Gracefully cascading in long lazy racemes, its “riotous loveliness” as described by British garden writer Reginald Farrer, flaunts lightly perfumed, deep lavender-pink pealike flowers, which soften to a paler pink. The uniquely colored, 1-½ ft. slender racemes unfurl from the base up, emerging concurrently with shiny bronze-suffused new growth. Defined by 15 to 19 oval-shaped, fresh green leaflets, the large and airy pinnate deciduous foliage cloaks a slew of versatile, clockwise twining stems that over time can be trained into a woody vine for a wall or hefty pergola, a large shrub or a semiweeping, mutistemmed tree.
Opulent, vigorous and highly prized, ‘Hon-beni’ doesn't fuss about soil fertility, relishes good drainage and needs late winter and summer prunings to maintain her shapely frame. Large Band.
Blooms May. Size: 20'–30' high x 0" & spreading; hardy to zone 5. Wisteria floribunda Hon-beni (T-0252) Each $13.00
