10 American Wisteria Seeds for Planting - Wisteria frutescens

Okay, no photos, since I'm writing this at an unmentionable hour. Plus a caterpillar got a few a bit - my fault. But they all germinated with no issue after lightly scuffing the seeds and then placing them in a covered glass with enough water to keep them ~1/4 submerged.I only wish I'd known that seed-grown wisteria can take 2 - 5, even in some cases as much as 15 years (so I've read anyway) to bloom, meaning I really should have gone with live cuttings from an already blooming plant, despite the expense, if I want to enjoy blooms any time soon from the plant in the location where I want it.

The seeds looked great! Received 12, scuffed then up and let them soak as directed. Made sure I bought organic potting soil, not Miracle-Gro as instructed. Mix of indoor and outdoor so they didn't get destroyed by the Texas heat and all I got was mushy seeds after a month.

To grow wisteria blooms from seeds like this takes 15 years! Didn't know that before buying. Apparently you have to start wisteria from grafted cuttings if you want any flowers within your lifetime.

Only 2 of the seeds germinated. This is my fault as I only soaked the seeds and did not scarify them. I’m still excited to have two American wisterias though! Just be sure to scarify the seeds well and give them a good soak before planting.

Nothing came of these seeds. I don’t even look like Wisteria pods seeds.

None of them sprouted and I attempted several different growing techniques. Kinda bummed

6 out of 10 seeds are growing! I'm so excited!
