22601Q.Planting blue Wisteria
I bought a blue wisteria plant from Lowe's. It's packaged in a cylindrical covering that is meant to keep in moisture. The plant's bulb is 2 years old. I live in northern Virginia. I've been searching everywhere and I can't find when I'm supposed to plant it. Do I wait until after last frost, or can I plant it now at the end of February? Thank you, Landon.

Certified ExpertA.You can plant your wisteria two or three weeks before the last frost date, as long as the soil is warm enough to work. If this hasn't happened yet, please see the following article for advice on keeping your plant healthy until then:

March 10, 2017A.This could be a leaf spot fungus on your vine.
Removal of the leaves effected is recommended.
Make sure you have good air circulation around the plant and that the soil is moist but not soggy.

Marietta, Ga. 30062Q.How to kill wisteria
Our neighbor has a wisteria plant that is out of control. It has taken over trees and has a huge root in our garden. If I cut the root and apply Roundup, will it kill the entire wisteria plant (hopefully).

April 9, 2017A.A variety called Summer Cascade is hardy down to zone 3, which is hardy down to -30 F --40 F.
You would need to purchase this variety as a plant.

April 13, 2017Q.My Wisteria Tree
I live in southern New Jersey. My wisteria was budding when we just had a couple of days of unseasonal cold weather. When I went out to look at it after the cold days the buds had turned brown. Will it still flower? Do I cut all the buds off?

April 14, 2017A.I'm sorry your Wisteria got affected by the colder temperatures! It is very possible that it will not bloom this year. Here are two articles that may help you:

April 21, 2017Q.Wisteria From a seed pod
1).I cracked the pod in the sun, waited for spring, opened the seed by putting it in water to get seedling to sprout, and finally, Grandson and I planted it in mulch with water holding pellets. It has come up through the dirt, and I have left it outside all night for the past 3-4 days and it is doing great. Anything else special I should do now? Oh, and I put a small stick next to it to give it support to climb. 2). I have seen it written that it can take 10 years or more for it to blossom, is that true? I have waited so long to grow one from a strong plant, and cannot beleive it would take that long to blossom from a seed. Please let me know, and Thank you for your time. Penny H.
