since nobody else has responded, I'll throw in my 2-cents-worth.... I've never tried to start a wisteria from root cuttings - nor would I ever want to! Many wisterias are grafted onto seedling rootstock. The rootstock is thus likely to be an inferior plant that may take a long time to bloom and is likely to be an inferior thing if it does bloom. Unless you are SURE that the root cutting came from a desirable wisteria that was NOT grafted, I wouldn't bother even trying to get them to grow!

wow really? I spent over 20$ on them off a local ebay seller. would you return them?

*if you were me?*

bc im seriously considering it..

gahhh!!! so right :)

thats such a shame!! I really wanted to grow wisteria! Its so beautiful :(

I've got green growth!! :) only one one out of six but hey thats something!! I will post pics tomorrow!

If you really want a Wisteria it would be best to do a little research and then buy a named cultivar which you have seen in flower. Otherwise there is no way of knowing what you are going to get. I don't know what they cost in the US but many good named varieties would cost less that the equivalent of $20 dollars over here.

well i paid less than 20$ here and I know what I bought. SO with my new growth I am happy. Thanks for the Advice.

It's good that one of your roots has grown and it will be fun to see how it turns out. I was just trying to explain that the only way to be sure of getting a good plant which meets your requirements is to buy a named cultivar from a reputable source. As Woodyoak mentioned above you don't actually know what you have bought apart from its being a Wisteria. If what what you were sold was from seedling or rootstock it might not flower for years and if or when it does there is no way of knowing what it will look like. It's a bit like buying a dog. You could purchase sight unseen a creature labelled ' dog' but you would probably prefer to know if it was a Chihuaha or a Newfoundland or a mongrel.
