Monty Don says we should prioritise pruning this 'vigorous' garden plant now it's June

Unpredictable seasonal weather can make it difficult to decide which garden chores to prioritise, however, one thing Monty Don says we should definitely be doing this month for future floral success is pruning wisteria.

Wisteria is a timeless garden trend that instantly enlivens any outdoor space with a sense of cottage garden charm. From framing front doors to trailing over arbours this delicate lilac flowering shrub is always a delight but it is a somewhat forceful, vigorous plant that requires regular pruning and training to ensure it stays in check.
