Forsythia
Flowering Garden Plants

• Hardy Deciduous Shrub

• Flowers in spring usually on bare stems before the leaves are produced

• The Labrador puppy of spring flowering shrubs, eager and exuberant

A quick growing shrub that can be used to fill out new gardens or bare areas, generally unfussy about position. Medium sized but there are also smaller varieties and even ground-cover cultivars. Prune after flowering once established to stop them getting too leggy and to encourage the dense production of flowers each year.
