Question

ForwardPlant Team · Accepted Answer

Yes, for temperate climates, you can consider varieties like *Wisteria frutescens* (American Wisteria) and *Wisteria macrostachya* (Kentucky Wisteria). These native North American species are less aggressive than their Asian counterparts, exhibiting a more restrained growth habit. They are also known for their beautiful blooms and are generally easier to manage in gardens, making them a more "non-invasive" choice compared to species like *W. sinensis* or *W. floribunda*.
