Our new place came with a big old wisteria plant that was totally dominating a little decrepit arbor. This is the bush AFTER Jeremy trimmed it. He asked me what we could do with it, as it is an eye sore currently. I told him it needed something big to climb on that wouldn’t mind Wisteria’s take-over nature.
So, that’s what he did – for our anniversary Jeremy (and they guys) built a pergola. It’s huge. The Wisteria will LOVE it.
Thanks, Honey – it’s beautiful.
OH MY GOSH Trina!! If you aren't the luckiest woman in the world! It's going to be wonderful!
That will be gorgeous once the wisteria takes over!
wow! bet it'll be gorgeous
What a thoughtful anniversary present!!! I'm sure the wisteria appreciate it as well 🙂
That is so cool! It is going to look amazing!

I *love* wisteria on a pergola! There was a prefectural park in the city where I grew up that had a huge one. I'm looking forward to pictures next spring! 😉
