Hi Mark, it is such a pleasure watching these videos of yours. The wisteria looked so much better when you were done. As I have said, I am located in Canada, zone 3 right now. Impossible to grow something like wisteria here. I have always been a fan of a cottage garden style, and love wisteria growing along a house. Last summer, I just started a single bloom old fashioned climbing rose along the side of our house. I will be using a wire system as well. I planted the rose about a foot from the house wall and will train it. I think people commenting about wisteria are thinking of it completely neglected. There are plenty of youtube lawnmowing videos in the States showing things like ivy taking over houses. This is all from neglect. I say keep the wisteria! Thanks for another look at an English property.
Very interesting video. The close-up ups were fantastic. Looks like something you have to stay on top of for sure! Great pruning instruction. Watching from zone 7 in canada.
Wisteria are beautiful when cared for properly. They add value to houses here in Uk....believe it or not, as they take so long to grow and then bloom into magnificent specimens!
Wisteria are invasive and u ever try to pull up a wisteria plant. They have extremely long roots they don't go deep down but spread across under dirt. When you start to pull u find your will be puking up your entire yard. Plus the sap it gives off can cause extreme skin irritations
Very enjoyable video! Wisteria is not as popular here in the U.S. because it tends to take over and climb and bury trees thereby eventually killing them and any other plants they encounter. Down in the southern states where it is warmer, you often see areas where the trees are almost dead and you have a forest of wisteria instead. I guess because they are not being pruned (as you were doing) they become wild and take over unabated. They are also considered poisonous which may deter many gardeners from using them in the landscape. By the way, Happy New Year and I look forward to more great videos this 2024!!!
@Marguerite I'm from America and live in California, and I see Wisteria a lot at people's homes, at local parks, a ll over. And my husband and I go on a lot of road trips to different states and I've seen a lot of Wisteria. It's definitely not unpopular here at all here in America. And people do take care of it and prune the Wisteria because they love how pretty it looks in their gardens and hanging on their trellis.
@@mdgardenservices7819I don't know why she mentioned that Wisteria in unpopular here in America because I see it everywhere in my neighborhood, my families neighborhood and my husband and I go on long road trips to visit other states and we like to see some places that are have beautiful and fun places to visit. A lot of people know having Wisteria is a lot of work to keep nice, but so are other plants and flowers can be a lot of work. It's not so humid in the west coast like it is in the Mid-west and the east coast, it's very comfortable weather here in California. I hope you get to visit the U.S. and see our beautiful Botanical gardens here. Thank you for all the good work you do. Just be safe, too. 😊🌸🌺
Hi, I hope you and your family had a great Christmas and the New Year brings you good health, laughter and happiness. Love these when they flower..Beautiful. Stay Safe from your Tasmanian Fan ❤🙏👍🤗
Finally, i have watched so many videos on here, and you showed me what i need to do. Hopefully, thank you for that. I have a beautiful sented lavender, colour wisteria about 29 years old . I would love for you to come and see what you could do with it. im South Coast, few towns from Brighton, I'm not sure we're you are. Sadly, it's a mess. i have never maintained the growth from the root area, and it has 5 inch branches, all twisting together, gowing over the front porch I do cut the long grouth when it gets out of shape but Sadly last year it fell of the porch and it pulled the wood structure from the wall and can't be repared because its rotten so we hoisted it up on rope it had so many flowers on it to having to cut alot off because i couldn't get into my front door it was so full of flowers and very low i cryed. when cutting, i tried to save the buds, but it didn't flower this year. Only in the wild bit climbing up a tree i have now cut that im waiting for the leaves to fall now so i can see the structure better it has too many branches, and im not sure what to cut. i believe a lot has died, and it just snaps off having it bunched together for a few years i think only the front is alive someone said cut the small twigs first then look at the bigger ones but i want it to flower nexed year im lost dont realy know what to do Any advice . Thank you
I’m glad you’ve found it helpful It’s hard when they get big and out of control! I would start by removing dead wood and then removing the years growth that’s unwanted. Getting into the older wood can be tricky especially if you want to keep next years flowers. Sometimes you have to sacrifice the flowers to get it back under control! I live between Portsmouth and Southampton 😊🙂
The key is to maintain it each year. The issues I have seen are people who plant it and forget it. Then in 5 years the vine has completely destroyed the side of their house. I saw one video from Tennessee in the USA and the vine broke through the vinyl siding, through the plywood behind that, literally broke out windows, put huge holes in the roof. It was crazy! The vine was literally growing through the wall and made its way inside the house. Its a beautiful plant when properly maintained. I tell people to plant it away from their house, posibbly grow it on a gazebo or pergola. That way it won't damage their house. My neighbors had it on their garden shed and it was gorgeous!
Yes I’ve seen what they can do to a house if not controlled. They are unbelievably strong and fast growing! Like you say if controlled they are really lovely 😊👍
Great video Mark. A lot of the older homes in my area of Michigan tend to have Wisteria varieties that are stand alone trees or vines over arbors or pergolas. I know there are a few types…American (vines 15-25 ft) vs Chinese and Japanese which are high-climbing vines reaching upwards of 70-80 ft. (I looked up the lengths).
I am in Virginia in the US and I have a wisteria plant in my side yard facing south. We cut it back each year and also during the growing season to better control its shape and growth. We love it!!
I live in Georgia USA and see a lot of wisteria blooming in the spring in the trees in yards and along the highways. It is like kudzu here in the south covering all the trees and chocking them out when it is growing wild so it is considered a nuisance as is kudzu and mistletoe. Beautiful to look at though. I’m learning a lot from your videos but unfortunately too old to put them in practice, lol. Happy New Year and God bless you and yours.
Never could understand why people want climbing vines of any kind to attach to their homes. Aesthetically I guess but it bring bugs up the wall into homes and in time weakens the brickwork. Oh well to each his own. You do a great job. 😊
Just bought my first wisteria to train up my wall. Can’t wait to see it when it blooms, do I need to prune it before it’s established? - and how do I know when that is?
Hi Train some main leaders to where you want them to go. Depending on how big it is you might have to prune it a bit. They can take a few years before they flower depending how mature it is when planted. Good luck with it🙂👍
I love it but wow it pulls morter from between the bricks . I honestly think here in America they dont take care of it as much as you all do. I had it climbing over my wooden fence but i also kept it in check.
Yes, in the 🇺🇲 wisteria unattended is a nightmare. Pretty but extremely invasive. Kept properly its a beautiful plant. I noticed that the fasteners to hold the training wire has been put in to the mortar joints and not into the brick. The mortar is to soft of a material to hold the weight of wisteria, it will just pull out again in a short amount of time. The fasteners should be anchored with "mollys" in the brick, much stronger.

Great pruning job and very informative. If you can, could you please take us back to this lovely home when the Wisteria is in bloom.
Thanks
Yes it’s a regular job so I will make sure to show it when in bloom😊👍
Top job on a job like this you need to no what you are doing great work 👍
Thank you🤗
Lovely work mark looking forward to seeing you often this year with more great videos 😊

I guess it maybe the same as here , some people love it and some think it’s too wild!
Properly trained it is a lovely plant😊👍
Very nice wisteria when they flower. For stone and brick house it is common in UK. Lovely flowers
Thanks
Yes very common here😊👍
Hi, I hope you and your family had a great Christmas and the New Year brings you good health, laughter and happiness. Love these when they flower..Beautiful. Stay Safe from your Tasmanian Fan ❤🙏👍🤗

Awesome work mark these are fun to do I love a good wisteria prune
Yeah it’s worth it when you see them flower
You wouldn’t believe how much time this thing takes 😄👍

I guess you have some different things growing that we don’t have.😊
I am in Virginia in the US and I have a wisteria plant in my side yard facing south. We cut it back each year and also during the growing season to better control its shape and growth. We love it!!
Yes kept under control they are great plants 😊👍
That was quite a job.
It was😅👍
Спасибо, очень интересное видео! 🇺🇦
Glad you enjoyed it👍
Odd work but awesome job 👍

I have heard people mention kudzu before and thought it must be like wisteria! 😊👍

It’s not for everyone but does make some dull looking houses look better. Makes them blend into the natural surroundings more. 😊

Hi

They can take a few years before they flower depending how mature it is when planted.

I love it but wow it pulls morter from between the bricks . I honestly think here in America they dont take care of it as much as you all do. I had it climbing over my wooden fence but i also kept it in check.
It is a pain if left to grow everywhere on its own!😅
Interesting video. I live in Washington State USA…wisteria would be like blackberries..nuisance.
Thanks
I guessed that was the case in some areas 😄
Yes, in the 🇺🇲 wisteria unattended is a nightmare. Pretty but extremely invasive. Kept properly its a beautiful plant.

I thought that was the case!
Yes the vine eyes are fixed in the mortar so the bricks are not damaged 😊
I don't mind the vines on a fence, but a house is a no-go for me.
Yeah it’s not for everyone 👍
En Angleterre il y a deux saisons : la saint Patrick le 23 avril et l’hiver 😂😂😂
😄🤗
@@mdgardenservices7819 💙🤍❤️
From what I understand there are different varieties and variety in the US is invasive - or has become invasive, much like English ivy.
That’s what I was thinking 😊👍
What a mess! I'd dig it all out and re-plant something else.
It’s not that bad!😄
That wisteria will take over and ruin the brick. I had to get rid of mine completely
It’s been ok so far and been there many years😊
I would encourage removal of all vegetation on the house
It’s not for everyone 🙂
Wisteria and its brother Kudzu from another mother needs to be locked up and throw away the key😂 seriously😅
It’s got to be kept under control!!
Is Kudzu another type of wisteria or something different. I hear it mentioned a lot in the USA.😅
@@mdgardenservices7819 yes, Kudzu is like a parasitic vine plant it kills trees and take over the ground also
