    Hi Folks my Wisteria was growning nicely, got it to about 3 metres then the leader branch snapped during high winds. Now it seems to have not got longer.

    Can i ask is this as long as it will grow now?

    Regards.

    Chris.

    It will grow side shoots that will take over.
    Its usual to summer prune wisteria, so having a shoot broken off now is not a disaster by any means.
