Why Choose Wisteria Caroline?

Wisteria Caroline, sometimes referred to in local searches as wisteria carrow, is beloved by gardeners for its prolific flowering and robust vigour. The delicately perfumed flower racemes drape elegantly, attracting bees and butterflies while providing a truly spectacular spring display. Its growth habit is ideal for training on structures, where it forms a graceful, leafy canopy through the warm months.

Growing Wisteria Carrow in New Zealand

Wisteria Caroline thrives in most New Zealand regions, preferring a sunny position with well-drained soil. Once established, it is remarkably hardy and tolerates moderate frosts. For the best results, plant with plenty of space for its lush foliage and train its stems along sturdy supports.

Tips for success: - Choose a spot with at least six hours of sun per day - Provide strong support such as a pergola, fence, or trellis - Prune twice annually: summer for shaping, winter to encourage flowering - Keep well-watered in the first seasons, then enjoy its drought tolerance

Complement Your Wisteria Caroline

For an even more captivating garden display, consider pairing your wisteria carrow with other imaginative climbers. Contrast flower colours and foliage for drama, or plant with prolonged bloom times for months of interest. Some inspiring companions include:

If you enjoy mixed climbers, try contrasting wisteria’s texture and colour with other fragrant or flowering vines like Clematis Nelly Moser (Clematis Vine Plant), Pandorea Lady Di, Trachelospermum jasminoides variegatum (Variegated Star Jasmine), or Jasminum azoricum (Azores Jasmine).
