Wisteria bud to flowers?

Post by fishnfreak »

Hi all,
One of my first attempts at bonsai was this little wisteria.
I re potted about 3 months ago where it promptly dropped all leaves and seemed dead.
It stayed on my bench as i had plenty of room to spare and hoped itd spring back in....spring ;)

Upon returning home from 3 weeks in Sydney ive found a lot of new growth and 3 flower buds!

How long do the buds tend to take to open?Image

From where they are now I'd guess a couple of weeks.
About 3 months ago would be the time wisteria would naturally drop leaves - they are deciduous and should lose leaves in winter.
You haven't given any indication where you live but seems your wisteria timing is quite late. Sydney wisterias have mostly finished flowering. One of mine has finished, the other is half open. so yours is quite late this year. Mine would usually drop leaves in April or May.

Enjoy the flowers when they open.
