Reply:I was going to tell you to prune its roots but if it is only two years old it is too soon to do that. Fertilize it with some super phosphate. When you buy fertilizer there are three numbers. The first one is nitrogen which makes it grow and be green, the second is phosphorus which makes it bloom and the last is potash which is for its roots. A good fertilization should help. Sprinkle it around the plant and work it in with a trowel or tool that looks like a bent fork.
Reply:Perennials don't usually flower the first year you plant them. Use some fertilizer and it should bloon this year. It also takes about three to four years for them to really look good. Just continue fertilizing occasionally. Good luck, I love the fragrance!

Reply:I'm not an expert but I would trim it back a little and fertilize it, then mulch. I lived in the country and the neighbours had a wisteria to die for.it was years old and grew up trees on a cattle property, i don't think they did anything to it at all except when it started off- i know they didn't even water it, once established it will race off-----make sure you give it a good start, a little blood and bone allways gives a boost- make sure you don't touch the stem or put directly on the roots with the fertilizer and mulch as this can actually damage the plant. Give it a good watering at least once per week. if it is young - then water it every second day till it establishes but watch out this is one of the most beutifull plants alive but it can take over if you don't care for it There must be a site on the net that can tell you the best care for the plant
