Hey everyone!

I have been neglecting my trees of late, uni has been taking up most of my time!
I was having a look at my trees today in this beautiful Sydney weather! And noticed that my wisteria has buds everywhere and what seems to be flower buds, is this correct?
I collected this tree a year ago and want to split the 2 from the large trunk is it too late to do so? I don't intend on giving a hard root prune just running a saw down and splitting the trees.

Any thoughts?

Cheers
Matt

I hope it is not too late to dig mine out of the ground, I have pruned it. But not as advanced as Sydney.

I think yours looks lovely and I agree with Ken, wait until it flowers. Seems happy where it is. They don't mind being pot bound I heard, they flower more.

Cheers and gud luck.

At this stage it really is still dormant as the flower buds are coming from the sap in the trunk and the roots haven't started to move yet, but it wont be long before they do. I have re-potted and root trimmed my wisteria at a slightly later stage than this and they were fine and continued to flower well. If you just want to separate them don't leave it too much later though as the flowers could partially abort. If you do keep them in a fairly sunny position and water daily and re pot into a well drained mix rich in humus, eg. old cow manure.
