Pod you are so right. Wisteria can definitely be a love/hate kind of shrub. We wanted one so we planted a rooted cutting from one of the family homesteads and it's about three years old now I guess. It is very pretty and is blooming again right now. It blooms off and on throughout the whole summer. Dh promised to keep it trimmed and keep an eye on it so it would not take over the place. So far he has kept his promise. :) We plan to get another rooted cutting this fall and plant it out in an area where there is nothing it can grab on to. I have no idea what species this wisteria is but it sure is a good bloomer and sure smells good too. I'm amazed that it's blooming in Aug.
