Wisteria is a genus of flowering plants in the pea family

It is also considered an invasive plant in the southeast.

Wikipedia says its because it chokes out other plants. I say it's because it can eat your house.

Wisteria allowed to grow on houses can cause damage to gutters, downspouts, and similar structures.

Wisteria will certainly rend latticework, crush thin wooden posts, and can even strangle large trees.

But is sure is beautiful!
