Noteworthy Characteristics. This forsythia cultivar is a compact, spreading, deciduous shrub which typically grows 2-2.5' tall and spreads to 5' wide. Features slightly fragrant, light yellow flowers which appear in profusion before the leaves in late winter to early spring.
Buds which led to the display of flowers on lower por-tions of the plants as previously described were insulated by a protective covering of snow, and were not affected. Snow withits myriad air spaces is the finest of all winter protective cover-ings. The Forsythias on Bussey Hill are located on slopes with-good air drainage and they flowered well in 1967. Owing to more favorable microclimates their buds were not damaged.
