JAPANESE PURPLE TREE FULL
Japanese wisteria prefers moist soils and full sun in USDA plant hardiness zones 5–9.
It also bears numerous poisonous, brown, velvety, bean-like seed pods 5–10 centimetres (2.0–3.9 in) long that mature in summer and persist until winter. The leaves bear about 15-19 oblong leaflets that are each 2–6 centimetres (0.79–2.36 in) long. The foliage consists of shiny, dark-green, pinnately compound leaves 10–30 centimetres (3.9–11.8 in) in length. Japanese wisteria can grow over 30 metres (98 ft) long over many supports via powerful clockwise-twining stems. It will also flower only after passing from juvenile to adult stage, a transition that may take many years just like its cousin Chinese wisteria. The early flowering time of Japanese wisteria can cause problems in temperate climates, where early frosts can destroy the coming years' flowers. The flowers carry a distinctive fragrance similar to that of grapes. These racemes burst into great trails of clustered white, pink, violet, or blue flowers in early- to mid- spring. It sports the longest flower racemes of any wisteria Some of those cultivars can reach 2 m (7 ft) in length. The flowering habit of Japanese wisteria is perhaps the most spectacular of the Wisteria genus.
It is also a common subject for bonsai, along with Wisteria sinensis (Chinese wisteria). Since then, it has become one of the most highly romanticized flowering garden plants. It was first brought from Japan to the United States in the 1830s. ( Wisteriopsis japonica, synonym Wisteria japonica, is a different species.) Growing to 9 m (30 ft), Wisteria floribunda is a woody, deciduous twining climber. Wisteria floribunda, common name Japanese wisteria ( 藤, fuji ), is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae, native to Japan.
