Forsythia × 'Meadowlark'

Meadowlark Forsythia

This hybrid of Forsythia ovata and F. europaea is an excenllent variant for the Midwest and is noted for its abundance of cold hardy flower buds that open to create a bright yellow flower show in the spring. Cut stems excised in mid-winter will flower indoors due to very short chilling requirement. Too big for most foundations and small border plantings (Don't Shear!). Remove old wood for best appearance.
