Forsythia

Description

One of the best ways to welcome the arrival of spring is with the profusion of rich, golden yellow blooms covering graceful, arching branches. Forsythia is a fast-growing, hardy shrub that bursts forth into bloom in late winter, providing a sunny scene before the remainder of the landscape starts to green up. blooms early — providing a sunny sight before the rest of the landscape greens up. The forsythias foliage is a deep green color and the serrated leaves act as a neutral backdrop for other plants. Sometimes they will even put on little show in fall with the leaves turning a deep purple just before they fall.

Forsythia are easy to grow and quite adaptable. They prefer well-drained, moist soil, but are tolerant of many different soil types and can handle drought fairly well. Full sun is best and forsythias can handle part shade but that may translate into less blooms during the spring. Selectively prune out old wood after blooming and remove any branches that look old and woody at the base of the plant to keep this shrub in optimum condition. Forsythia grows to a height of 8 to 10 feet.
