Hello Lilly,


Hey Lady! How you be?


I guess the one to answer here is Paghat, since she is likely to know
about this quasi "climate" question, but when it gets cold some
of our wisterias (two) die here and there, as they do need renewal.


Paggers usually knows, good point.


I guess this is the way yours is letting you know that she is trying
to get into the Washington climate and perhaps - since some of
it appears to be dead - it wouldn't do any harm to cut it back to
where it looks green and sacrifice perhaps some bloom in order
to give it a chance to restore itself?



That's what I was hoping it was. Pruning is an art I'm just very good
at yet. The guy who gave it to me, said the worse I treat it, the
better it will bloom. That's been true so far, but I think it is
adapting to Washington weather.

I doubt anything would
have grown anyway from the area of dieback, but if Paghat doesn't
chime in, a good nursery around your area maybe the best
answer. What kind of wisteria are you growing?


Actually, I think I'll do that. I have no idea what kind it is.
There's more than one kind, lol? Um, the white kind? }
Someone shoot me... please.
