[Arid_gardener] Re: wisteria

[Veronica Broadley]

Janet, I am no expert, but I planted a Chinese wisteria in late  
winter. It grew beautifully, especially once I encouraged it to twine  
around its support. But as the temperatures got hotter, I saw the  
same issue with the leaves that you do, although I don't think the  
plant in general was suffering too badly. I gave it some shade and a  
bit more water, and it immediately came out with new growth, most of  
which is staying green. A few of the edges and tips are drying, but  
for the most part the shade seems to be doing the trick.
