ID Characteristic |
Also known as 'Shiro Noda'. The blooms are 50 cm, white racemes. Popular, aggressive, flowering vine. Pinnate leaves with up to 19 lance-shaped leaflets up to 7.5 cm long. Top choice for covering arbours or spilling over fences. The flowering is not as spectacular as Chinese Wisteria due to shorter bloom period. Can become quite large. Twines from right to left. |
