| Description | Wisteria sinensis
Wisteria sinensis 'Jako' is an enchanting vine that bursts with fragrant, white flowers each spring. Its stunning, cascading clusters fill the air with their delightful scent. This vigorous plant thrives best on solid structures like pergolas, walls, or trellises, and loves to bask in full sun to partial shade with well-drained soil. For the best chance of future blooms, be sure to prune it after flowering.

Chinese White Wisteria is the gorgeous white variety of the highly popular Wisteria sinensis. The sinensis varieties are very popular due to their blooms appearing on bare vines in the spring, before the leaves appear. It makes for a gorgeous feature of solid, fragrant colour.
Wisteria sinensis is a very hardy twisting vine that prefers a full sun position in a moist, well drained humus soil. The gorgeous white flowers of the Wisteria sinensis 'Alba' are slightly smaller than that of the Wisteria floribunda 'Alba', hanging 18-30cm long off the vine.
