go to wayside gardens. they will send you a free catalogue. look for "amethyst falls" wisteria. wisteria sinensis is chinese, wisteria floribunda is japenese, and (as leu said) wisteria frutescens is the american type. the floribunda -japenese type is what i unwittingly bought at lowe's. the "amethyst falls" wisteria is $19.95 a plant @ wayside gardens. they list it as growing to 30 ft. and specifically mention the south. thanks!

Fantastic!

Let me know how it does! These have typically been hard to find in the past. Glad to see they're getting more popular!
