A Spectacular Waterfall of Lavender-Blue Flowers

The Wisteria floribunda 'Cascade' is a magnificent Japanese variety, aptly named for its breathtaking ability to create a literal waterfall of flowers. Following the graceful and decorative spirit of 'Minuet', it produces exceptionally long, pendulous racemes that sway elegantly in the breeze. These stunning clusters are packed with pea-like, lilac-blue flowers that emerge in late spring, creating a high-impact visual display against the backdrop of fresh green, pinnate foliage.

A vigorous and reliable Japanese climber, 'Cascade' is known for its clockwise-twining habit and its intoxicatingly sweet fragrance. Its flower racemes can reach impressive lengths of up to 40-50cm, making it one of the most dramatic varieties for vertical interest. As the flowers open sequentially from the base to the tip, it provides a long-lasting and sensory garden experience. In autumn, the leaves turn a beautiful buttery yellow, ensuring the plant remains a focal point even as the seasons change.

Key features:

• Exceptionally Long Racemes: Features dramatic, drooping clusters of lilac-blue flowers that "cascade" downwards.

• Intense Sweet Fragrance: Highly scented blooms that fill the air with a classic Wisteria perfume.

• Vigorous Japanese Habit: A strong, clockwise-twining climber perfect for large structures.

• Spectacular Spring Display: Flowers abundantly, often covering the plant in a haze of lavender-blue.

• Golden Autumn Foliage: Leaves turn a stunning yellow in the autumn for late-season interest.

Perfect for:

• Training over high pergolas, arches, and walkways where the long racemes can hang freely.

• Covering large sunny walls to add a touch of romance and architectural beauty.

• Cottage gardens and traditional, informal planting schemes.

• Wildlife-friendly gardens, as the nectar-rich blooms are a magnet for pollinators.

At The Rose Press Garden, we love 'Cascade' for its sheer drama. It truly lives up to its name; when in full bloom, it looks like a shimmering blue waterfall. From a distance, it creates a soft, misty effect, but up close, the intricate detail of each individual flower and the strength of its sweet perfume make it an unforgettable addition to any garden.
