Wisteria sinensis 

Lavender Lace’ wisteria has lovely foliage and flowers that bloom in early summer with fragrant trailing flowers up to 20 inches long in tones of white and blue. It is a vigorous grower often followed by poisonous seed in green pods. Ideal for a house wall that gets full sun or partial shade or up a pergola. This wisteria grows fast and will need cutting back at least twice and year to keep it in check. Leaves appear just after the flowers. Another way of identifying the difference between Chinese and Japanese Wisteria is that the Chinese varieties twine clockwise and the Japanese anti-clockwise. Blue / Lilac scented flowers come out in late Spring and early Summer, usually followed by green seed pods.
