Plant

Wisteria

3 US plant patents name this plant. 0 have expired, so those cultivars are free to propagate and sell. The next of the 3 still protected comes off patent on August 22, 2027.

Still under patent — 3 cultivars

Soonest to come off patent first. You may not propagate these for sale until the date shown.

Botanically this is Wisteria. A patent expiring frees the plant, and its cultivar name with it — cultivar names cannot be trademarked. Any brand name it is sold under is a separate thing and may still be owned.
