Planting
Make sure the root ball of the ‘Alba’ is suitably moist by soaking it in a bucket full of lukewarm water overnight. Prepare a suitable hole in fertile, moist but well-drained soil. Improve the soil by adding some compost and garden fertiliser, especially when planted near the wall. Plant the root ball at the appropriate depth in the hole - the top of the root ball should be just slightly below ground level. Fill the hole with soil and press firmly down. Water immediately after planting. Wisteria belongs in full sunshine.

The Japanese Wisteria needs to be pruned You can prune your Japanese Wisteria (Wisteria floribunda ‘Alba’) twice a year. Tie in a few long, lateral shoots and cut back the sub-lateral shoots to 2-3 buds when pruning in January or February. After flowering in July trim all lateral branches to about 4-5 leaves each. This keeps the plant compact and helps towards a rich flowering in the following year.
