American wisteria
Wisteria frutescens
American wisteria thrives in full sun to part shade with consistently moist, well-drained soil. Unlike its invasive Asian relatives, this native vine is well-behaved and ideal for trellises, arbors, and fences. Prune after flowering to control size and encourage reblooming.
