The wisteria in amphitheater |
So why would Van Vleck allow something to grow in the amphitheater that's so dangerous to the native organisms? These species of wisteria can tear off gutters, bend iron railings, strangle trees, and smother entire woods and hillsides. Without proper care, these suckers could take over the world (*this might be a slight exaggeration*). In all honesty, I'm not sure why wisteria is grown in Van Vleck other than for the aesthetic of the beautiful, fragrant flowers.
So, if you're like me in September and couldn't care less about some purple plant, if these nasty bines start growing in your yard, you might want to start worrying.
