    Was your wisteria bought at the nursery or grown from seed? Wisteria grown from seed can take up to 15 years to bloom, as incredulous as that sounds.

    The following article details the reasons for non-blooming wisteria and offers suggestions to remedy it:

    Does the wisteria develop buds that just aren’t opening? If so, this article will help you:

    Any kind of move or transplant is a shock to a plant’s system and it takes a period of time to recover. Here is an article on transplant shock that will give you guidelines on how to soothe the transition for your plant:

    The best time to transplant wisteria is actually in the late fall or early spring when the plant is dormant. And, just to give you a heads up, established wisteria do not like to be moved and may rebel by not blooming for several years.

    You should be seeing growth from the vines.
    It is possible that the vines were damaged in the severe cold winter that nearly the entire United States suffered.
    New branching and buds are formed on old wood, and even a late spring cold kill the buds.
    I would continue to care for the plant and perhaps the old vine can just serve as a support.

    Here is a few links with more growing and pruning information.

    It is difficult to prescribe a treatment given that I do not know more about the issue your wisteria is experiencing. Can you describe the overall condition of your wisteria - can you tell me more about this fungus or provide a photo? Do your blooms and leaves look healthy? Even if a fungicide was necessary, it would not require cutting the trunk.

    Here is an article on common wisteria diseases, including fungal leaf disease, that may help you:
