Don't over-style these babies. Look at how Kyosuke Gun and similar artists work with flowering vines...

Keep us posted on this one.

Best wishes,

OMG Kyosuke Gun is my hero!! I have 2 of his books, and they are very inspiring. Definately will keep it simple like him.

Jay YOU CAN NOT RUSH TIME Join Date: Sep-2001 Location: Jeffersonville Vt Country: USA USDA Zone: 4 AHS Heat Zone: 3 Posts: 2,154	Kazuki, If I remember correctly, I think there are two types of Wisteria.... one Japanese and the other Chinese. Someone please jump in and help me here!!! I remember the Chinese had smaller flowers and leaves and the Japanese had the long flowing flowers... I could be off on this but I think it is the case....

Aparantley the Chinese wisteria has shorter racemes and more fragrant flowers, whereas japanese wisteria is the one we are al more familiar with. Jonny.
