    Hopefully you have used a good quality, commercial grade potting mix in your container.
    It should be a mix of compost, peat and perlite to support the plant but allow good drainage.
    The Wisteria should receive a fertilizer application each spring such as an all purpose formulation or even one that is suited for Tomatoes.
    Look for a ratio of 5-10-5.
    Check the container and soil daily, you may need to water even twice a day in temperatures above 85 degrees.
    Wisteria is relatively drought tolerant, but the soil should never dry out.
    Make sure that the containers drainage holes are not blocked and that excess water is draining from the container.

    Wisteria is an aggressive growing vine and can easily become invasive. Growing in a large container is possible, but the vines can still infiltrate a homes structure if left to attach itself.
    Constant pruning and training unto a trellis will be needed to keep the vine 'contained in the pot'.

    As long as the temps don't get below -15 or -20, the plant will survive. It is hardy from zones 5 to 9, and it looks like most of your state falls within range. If you are concerned, it wouldn't hurt to wrap something around them to keep them warm on the coldest nights.
