Blue Chinese Wisteria
Blue Chinese Wisteria, Wisteria sinensis, is a twining, woody vine valued for its pendulous clusters of extremely fragrant violet-blue flowers. Chinese Wisteria is a shade tolerant vine, but it only blooms when grown in partial to full sun. It is perfect for covering patios, arbors or fences. Leaves consist of 7 to 13 leaflets of large size; after flowering, very attractive, velvety pods are produced, containing seed. It is probably best used for training to grow onto an arbor where flowers can droop and form a fragrant ceiling of color.

Variegated Mountain Fleece
The Fallopia, 'Fallopia japonica 'Variegata', is an very colorful clump perennial that is excellent for brightening up a shady corner. The new spring leaves are variegated pink and white. As the leaves mature
they turn a marbled white and green with pink highlights and red stems. To maintain form, this plant should be pruned back extensively every spring. The Fallopia will reach a mature height of about 4 feet and they will spread and make larger clumps each year, hence, the need for pruning if you want to confine this plant in a smaller area.
