Wisteria 2012

If you had visited the gardens this time last year you would not have seen the wonderful display of Wisteria as they had all flowered in April, see blog entry 'Wonderful Wisteria' dated 27th April 2011. For a time this year it looked as though they would again flower early as, again, we had had a period of extreme cold in February followed by a very warm period in March as in 2011, however the wet April put a halt to their early flowering and we are back into May flowering as in 2010. However, a number of visitors and staff have mentioned the beautiful, strong fragrance they seem to have this year, something not noticed in previous years. Here are this years photographs of the stunning display of Wisteria around the college gardens:
