Wisteria sinensis aka Chinese Wisteria

Chinese Wisteria requires a bit more attention and knowledge to thrive, making it a suitable plant for those with some gardening experience.

Chinese Wisteria should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Chinese Wisteria loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

To ensure optimal growth, the Chinese Wisteria prefers bright diffused light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

During the cold period, it is common for Chinese Wisteria to go dormant and their growth may slow down, so waterings should be spaced out more during this period.

Chinese Wisteria is poisonous if ingested. We suggest keeping this plant out of reach if you have children, cats, or dogs in the home.

Chinese Wisteria’s native range is E. Asia - China. Locally naturalized in Europe in France[50].
