This shrub is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.
I planted this last year in a fairly dry, narrow border next to a wall, with pink English shrub roses. I have been really impressed with the attractive weeping habit and the constant supply of flowers if dead-headed...almost to Christmas. Very quick to establish and so far a dwarf shrub, so provided it does not get any bigger this is a five-star purchase.

This was such a great discovery. It has a beautiful arching habit in a really compact form that is ideal for a patio or container garden. The flower heads are long and pendulous and beautiful. And there are lots of them, even in the first year, and even in light shade. You need a really good reason not to buy one of these. I'm already looking forward to what it will do in 2019! I honestly think about this plant quite a lot.

Great. I wanted something small for my limited spaced garden in central London. It filled a gap perfectly - the idea of having a small version of the huge one appealed. It arrived as a limited size (I think a couple of hardened tall twigs) but, almost instantly, took off in to a green bushy thing with the purple droops hanging not long after...) now debating / googling whether to cut it right back this early spring ahead of 2019 - trusting how small it started when it arrived last year - to bloom in to something perfect again this year. I kept on dead heading right in to the end of autumn 2018 but it still had blooms very late on (again, perks of living in a very mild spot in the UK). Looking forward to seeing how it performs now that it's settled in! Now plotting this summer...

This has proved to be a healthy and floriferous shrub with an attractive, bushy habit. The flowers hang down and if deadheaded regularly repeat throughout summer and autumn. I have been very impressed in this first year and if it stays reasonably dwarf then it will be a valuable addition to the garden.

Hello, It is not unusual for plants to shed some of their older, lower leaves as they are actively growing - particularly if their roots are restricted in a pot.

Hello, These wisterias do tend to have quite pendent stems, particularly as the flowers start to appear, but if you want it to be more upright, then you can use a plant support - something like the larger one of these would be ideal..... https://www.crocus.co.uk/product/_/peony-plant-supports/classid.2000022744/

Hello there You can plant fully hardy container grown plants any time as long as the the soil is waterlogged or frozen or freezing outside. This Buddleja davidii 'Wisteria Lane' is fully hardy so can be planted out now, or if we are having a cold spell keep it outside in the garden, in a sheltered spot where it won't be blown over until you can plant it in the spring.
