I have grown two plants of the so-called "White Forsythia",
Abeliophyllum distichum, also known as Korean Abelia-Leaf In the
nearly 10 years that they have bloomed for me, I have never noticed
seed until this year. Is seed set unusual in this species? The
foliage is not particularly remarkable, but the early spring
blossoms of white make it worthwhile.
Here is a photo of the flowers:

If anyone is interested in trying this from seed, I'd be happy to
mail you some . Please contact me privately at:
