Actually, the wisteria is considered to be very strong and fast-growing. It can certainly grow more than a meter per year. If the desired growth does not occur, then you should look for the cause and/or transplant your wisteria if necessary.

If the wisteria is very dark, it will grow more slowly

Why isn't my wisteria growing properly?

Various things can be considered as the cause of a lack of growth in wisteria. Essentially, it is an unsuitable location, insufficient or incorrect care or an infestation with pests. Various plant diseases are rarely the cause of poor growth in wisteria.

Causes of poor growth in wisteria:

  • too little light
  • too little space for the roots
  • lack of water supply
  • nutrient deficiency
  • possibly damage to the roots by waterlogging or voles

How can I encourage my wisteria to grow?

If your Wisteria has been neglected for a few years, possibly by the previous owner, then a good deal of work awaits you. First you should cut back the plant generously and thoroughly loosen the surrounding soil. You might want to take a look at the roots during this campaign.

Optimize the care of your Wisteria by providing it with water regularly. Especially in spring and just before flowering, it is quite sensitive to a lack of water. On the other hand, hold back with the gift of fertilizer. If the wisteria gets too many or the wrong nutrients, it will sprout in abundance, but these water saplings will not bloom.

When is it time to transplant the wisteria?

If a wrong location is responsible for the lack of growth of your wisteria, then it is best to transplant it. Not only will it grow poorly in the shade, it will usually not flower there either. Too little space and a wet location with unavoidable waterlogging are also reasons to put your wisteria in a different place.

In general, the wisteria is one of the fast-growing plants. For this, however, it needs a lot of light and space as well as sufficient nutrients and water.
