Last summer I started working at someone's house for a variety of projects. One was to paint the fence outside. The guy before me put on the primer and alot of the top coat, but what he did as well was paint everything around the fence, including the wisteria which is climbing on most of it. The leaves are gone now thanks to mother nature, but the vines still have a great deal of paint left on them.
What's a guy to do (If anything)? I hope there's something. Thanks.
How do I get paint off the Wisteria?
Wisteria vine is a very vigorous grower...not much can hurt it. If you are worried about the vine's health because of the paint...I wouldn't worry. On the other hand, If you don't like the look of it, I would prune out whatever can possibly be pruned out. I wouldn't power wash it as this CAN harm the plant...you might as well just cut it out to begin with. If it was mine, I'd just prune as much as I could and then leave the rest. Don't you worry...it'll grow back!!!
Reply:whats wisteria?
Reply:If a standard hose doesn't work, try using a power washer. The power washer will have verying degrees of tip, from 0 degree (like a lazer) and up. Start with the gentlest of tips and work your way down.
Reply:it will eventually shed its bark, if you put anything on it, it will die. you can strip the bark but wait till spring
