All the romance and breathtaking beauty of wisteria — without the worry. 'Amethyst Falls' is a native American wisteria that delivers cascading clusters of fragrant, soft blue-violet blooms in a well-behaved, manageable form that makes it the responsible and practical choice for gardeners who have long admired wisteria from a safe distance.
In late spring, 'Amethyst Falls' drapes itself in pendant clusters of delicate, lightly sweet-scented lavender-blue flowers that flutter gracefully in the breeze and create an atmosphere of pure, dreamy romance wherever they grow. And unlike its notoriously aggressive Asian cousins, 'Amethyst Falls' blooms at a younger age, reblooms sporadically through summer, and stays well within its bounds with minimal pruning — all while supporting native pollinators.
