Re: forsythia
here in zone 7 forsythia is like the plague. I cut it down to the
ground and it just keeps coming back. I have pruned mine 2 or 3 times
already this year (since it has finished blooming) I have to cut it
back or it just takes over my other flowers space. It's beautiful in
the spring. I plant it with my hawthorns and the pink and yellow is
beautiful together. If you want more, just break or cut off a branch
stick in the ground and before you know it, it has taken roots and you
have another forsythia..........
if I'm pruning I usually cut the old growth, it will bloom more for
you on the new growth.
I'm giving advice for my area (zone 7 in NE Mississippi) I'm not sure
about other areas.
