ORIENTAL WISTARIAS 
Without any doubt Wistaria is the finest flowering vine in cultivation for the 
temperate climate. It is adaptable to all conditions, for pergolas, to cover unsightly 
buildings, to beautify lovely buildings, as formal, tree-like plants for formal gardens, 
in bush form on the lawn, and many other purposes. 
Wistaria may be raised from seed and under certain favorable conditions may 
produce flowers within a reasonable time. Many nurseries sell seedling Wistaria, as 
they can be produced cheaply, but the unfortunate result for the unlucky buyer is, 
they may not flower in his life time. For good and reasonably prompt results, it is 
absolutely necessary that Wistaria must be produced, grafted, from flowering vines. 
This process of grafting has a distinct tendency to slow up the growth and will under 
all circumstances produce flowers within a reasonable time after transplanting from 
the nurseries. Under certain favorable conditions, one can be assured of flowers 
at once. Under no circumstances should gardeners plant seedling Wistaria. 
Our Wistaria are all grafted from scions taken from blooming vines or from 
flowering wood. Our stock should bloom very soon after planting. Grafted plants 
cannot be sold as cheaply as seedlings. Seedlings may not bloom for ten years. 
If you have a greenhouse, I suggest that you pot a few of the flowering vines. 
We can furnish hand-made pots. 
Prepare to exhibit our WISTARIA at 
the next Spring Flower Show.
