Spring Fling® Forsythia

Forsythia 'UMNFOR01' PP35,518

Spring Fling® Forsythia is a beacon of spring. Early in the season, Spring Fling® brings the garden to life with a brilliant explosion of yellow flowers that cover the plant from top to bottom. Maturing to 5 to 6 feet tall and wide, Spring Fling® is perfect as a back-of-border focal point in spring, a beautiful hedge, or as a foundational anchor at the corner of your home. Growing best in full sun, Spring Fling® is not picky about soil type and can be planted most anywhere you need a pop of early-season flowers.
