Wisteria floribunda 'Alba'

Long racemes of pristine white, pea-like flowers cascade gracefully from this Japanese Wisteria. Each raceme reaches up to 45cm (18) long with a heavenly sweet scent. The vigorous twining stems of Wisteria floribunda 'Alba' are cloaked in attractive pinnate foliage throughout summer, which turns to buttery yellow in autumn. This elegant climber is a cottage garden classic, earning its RHS AGM through sheer flower power and superb garden performance. Height: 8m (26'). Spread: 4m (13'). Culinary note: The flowers are the only edible part of the plant and can be made into an aromatic wine. Their flavour is perfumed. Caution: All other parts of wisteria are poisonous.
