My wisteria died this year. This week I noticed it had new shoots at bottom of plant.

Question

Should i cut original plant back to ground level? If so when should I do it.

Answer 1

This can indicate that it is in need of restorative pruning if it is over a few decades old. If it is still under a decade old, then you may be looking at a different issue.

Prune anything that is completely dead, for sure. If you can include photos, and a description of how it is cared for, and fed, then I can be of more assistance with this issue.
