An Elegant and Fragrant Cascade of Pure White
The Wisteria sinensis 'White Silk' is a breathtakingly beautiful deciduous climber, prized for its elegance and intoxicating fragrance. Similar to the grace of a 'Minuet', it produces long, drooping racemes of pea-like, snowy-white flowers that create a spectacular "curtain" effect. These stunning blooms typically emerge in late spring, appearing in masses to create a dramatic, silk-like display against the fresh green foliage.
This variety is a vigorous and reliable performer, perfect for adding vertical interest and a touch of romance to any garden. Its pendulous flower clusters can reach up to 30cm in length, gently swaying in the breeze and filling the air with a sweet, delicate perfume. Whether trained over a sturdy structure or allowed to drape over a doorway, 'White Silk' is a true showstopper that brings a sense of timeless beauty.

At The Rose Press Garden, we love 'White Silk' for its sheer luminosity. While many Wisterias dominate with purple hues, the 'White Silk' offers a crisp, clean, and sophisticated alternative. From a distance, it looks like a waterfall of white; up close, the intricate detail of each flower is simply exquisite.
