“Girl under Wisteria Bloom” is a marvelous compact deciduous Japanese cultivar, whose namesake aptly alludes to its sizable, long-blooming Wisteria-esque blue-violet flowers. Large plump buds blanketed with short white hairs unfurl flattish and satiny smooth 6 to 7 in. blooms defined by tapered, slightly overlapping tepals, significant saffron-yellow stamens and later, ornamental pouffed golden seed heads. Introduced in 1952, this strong-growing AGM champion can be enthroned on a small obelisk, a threshold or in a patio pot, where the delightful blossoms will cool down the hottest summer afternoon.

Blooms May–June & mid-August–September

Size: 6' 0" – 9' 0" high x 0" & spreading wide.
