    Has anyone ever come across Wisteria grown in a tub?

    There is a miniature/dwarf Wisteria which can be grown in a tub but they're expensive - saw one yesterday at local garden centre, about 2ft high & the same wide, on a frame with three flower buds £34.99. Didn't check what its eventual size would be once I saw the price .. but it was pretty and it did come with the tub and the frame. I understood that it could stay in the tub and wouldn't need to be planted on.

    Thanks for that. I've gone for honeysuckle but I will look out for a dwarf example.

    I have 2 Wisteria, one is in the ground and the other in a pot, inherited from dad, so I do not know much about these, one in the pot has lots of leaves and rather full, no flowers, however the one in the ground looks a bit whispy and not as many leaves but I do have my first lot of flowers on this one.:hapydancsmil:

    take care
