I'm pruning my wisteria - can anyone tell me, does it only flower on the
new
wood? I know about cutting back to two buds ...
many thanks, all thoughts appreciaited
It mostly flowers on the old wood, only occassional flowers on the new, the
reason you are pruning it now is to try and make it form flowering spurs
(like fruiting spurs on an apple tree) they look quite different and should
not be removed (for obvious reasons!)
