The view from my kitchen window looks like this at the moment with the Wisteria Sinensis hanging down from the pergola, which is, I think, the best way to grow Wisteria. The flowers are exactly where I want them to be i.e. at eye level. Gardeners (and particularly gardeners who are garden designers) should learn from their triumphs as well as mistakes and whilst the Wisteria looks really good here, the Rosa 'Golden Showers' above it is a problem. And that is the problem, it's ABOVE the pergola, about to put on a spectacular show for the birds. I just hope they appreciate all the effort that went into pruning it. So, what can I learn from this mistake? Simply that climbing roses are better trained against walls or fences and Wiseria is the perfect plant for a pergola.
