Wisteria Hysteria
Wisteria blossoms, Meeting St., Charleston, SC
I can't resist directing my morning walk towards this wisteria display on Meeting St. each year. It is one of the annual traditions I look forward to and would hate to miss. I've been busy lately and my Magnolia annual pass needs to be renewed but I made sure to enjoy some spring blossoms this morning.
This is one of my favorite plants ever... am currently training one into a tree. What a lot of people don't know is that a young wisteria plant can take up to 7 years to actually bloom. Lots of people expect to buy it, plant it, and have immediate results. Like any real southern lady, Miss Wisteria expects a lot of patience and attention before she gives you any sort of reward!

I think I would have asked that lady in the purple coat to pose directly beneath the wisteria. She matches them.
A right of passage we expect and appreciate from you!Just like you happy new year shells on Folly Beach.Thanks Joan!
