22 most Awesome Wisteria Tunnel Photos

Wisteria – you name it, I love it. From the very beginning wanted to have it in my own garden. Is there any obstacle to plant something if you really want? No… so I planted one. Unfortunately wrong specie and obviously in wrong place. At the beginning of our garden venture, mistake is our daily experience, right?

After 4 years at the end of every summer my wisteria was reaching the roof of my 2 floor house. It’s scary vivacious shoots were tightly embracing the roof-gutter ready to squeeze in coming years. Remembering the stories of monstrous wisterias being able to lift the roofs, I was nervously cutting it back every summer. Cutting, cutting, cutting – it is main maintenance wisteria needs.

After thinking again, I removed it and replaced with fruit bearing Chaenomeles shrubs (best for home made liquers – want recipe?).

But still this is always so much pleasure to look at beautifully planned and maintained wisteria garden. Enjoy the photos I have hand picked for you. This is not the first time I am presenting wisteria photos. You may see it also by clicking here.

5 photos of small shady backyard landscaping ideas direct from Holland

These photos were taken in Holland. Just look at this neat and beautifully maintained spaces.

Whenever I am in Holland I have this surprising feeling that concept of space is really abstract. I am telling you… it is streaching… whatever you may think about it now.  

Just give me your hand and let's have a look at the photos, okay?

These are relatively small spaces to arrange and yet, so much is going on there.   

Gardens and planting is expanded to the walls and nobody is having these irrational ideas that plans will destroy them.

Neatly trained Parthenocissus tricuspidata known as Japanese creeper aka  Boston ivy aka Japanese ivy looks like 3d cushion sculpture on the wall.

Climbing hydrangea on th right gives lush green and white flowers in the late spring/early summer.

On the right trained Pyracantha coccinea - European species of Firethorn that has been cultivated in gardens since the late 16th century. In UK it is trained since 18th century. Great plant with benefits - interesting shape and intense coloured fruits (red, yellow or orange) in the autumn.

And I just couldn't resist to share these eyecandy.

Thanks for the walk :)
