The key to it, haighr, is a cutting from a matured vines. With our training process, which is withhold water during the growing season, no nitrogen fertilizer. In fact, I didn't fertilize this pot at all last year. (All sort of books and literature will recommend monthly fertilizer program). I went against all odds, and look at the result!

This and 4 others Wisteria are making buds for me. This is the earliest of the 5 Wisterias that's going to bloom for me this spring. All are in pots. Those that I planted out in the garden recieved ample of sprinklers water with other plantings, they just sit there and put out green leafy growth and those tenacious long 'whiskers' without any blooms!.

Here is the large 8 feet 'standard' specimen that I've in a half whiskey barrel. It graced our garden with hundred of blooms last spring....this is the few of the emergent buds...
