Follow Wisteria
Fiona Butcher is passionate about Wisteria. Her National Collection is in Cumbria, planted in the garden and in pots.
As the king of climbers, Wisteria needs no introduction. Its long racemes of flowers are a stunning visual display that also smells beautiful. Fiona grows a lot of them in a small space, armed with only a pair of scissors to prevent complete invasion! She is looking forward to telling you more about her Collection.
