Wisteria floribunda 'Honbeni' (syn. 'Pink Ice'), Japanese wisteria

A rare pink wisteria! Whimsical racemes of the palest pink blooms edged in lavender and brushed with a soft yellow center. Long-lasting, sweetly scented blooms cascade down pendulous racemes of up to 16 inches in length. Foliage emerges bronze before transforming to a vibrant green and welcomes autumn with a sunny yellow glow.  A slow-growing cultivar adding 2-3 ft a year. Enjoys summer water.  Wisterias like rich non-alkaline soil and full or part sun. Make certain their supports are sturdy; later, with age they can become self-supporting. Deer-resistant! Minimum temperature: -20° F
