Hi everyone,im a newbie here so please forgive meif i have posted this in the wrong place ! Im eeding some advice on my new Wisteria. I bought it on sunday had to pick it up from Southampton, its 20 yrs old and grown from seed and at £25 i thought it was a bargain !! The pot it came in was way too heavey to carry so i have put it in another pot ( a deeper one ) as that was the only spare pot i had. On sunday eve i was on Google, and read to my horror, that by putting it in a larger/ deeper pot, it will send it back to beeing a juvenile and go back to producing leaves next year and not flowers!! Does anyone know that this is true ? I dont know yet if it will become a Bonsai yet, i may keep it as it is, and im aware that i cant do anything untill its finished flowering anyway, but it terrified im risking loosing the flowering next year !!! Here she is !! Thank you SO much for any help

aeris73 , it's a beautiful plant isn't it! I've not heard that but I wouldn't think it would make much difference unless it was a massive difference in pot size & yours looks like it must have been in only a slightly smaller one originally.

I don't think I would have walked past it either aeris73 it's a lovely shape too. I agree with SueA it should be fine

What I don`t understand Aeris, is, why isn`t your young, "grafted" Wisteria not flowering yet. If grafted, Wisterias should be in full flower in 3 years. In fact, they would normally be of flowering age at the time of sale.
