Forsythia intermedia ?Minigold? has the same spectacular yellow flower displays in early spring as other varieties, but in a naturally compact, low-maintenance form.
Reaching only 120cm in height and width when mature, this stunning ornamental shrub is perfect for patio pots and smaller garden beds and borders in a sunny or semi-shaded spot, and produces a burst of lightly scented, yellow star-shaped flowers in March and April, before many other garden plants wake up.
After flowering, its branches will become covered in mid-green leaves.
This hardy shrub is easy to grow and needs little pruning, so is ideal for anyone who wants maximum impact with minimum effort. It is one of the easiest and most rewarding shrubs to grow.
Supplied as an established plant in a 3L pot ready for planting in a pot or in your garden.
Care Information
- In late spring, after flowering has finished, prune by cutting back all flowered shoots to a healthy pair of leaves.
- Apply a mulch of well-rotted manure or other organic matter around the base of the plant after pruning.
- Container-grown plants will need an annual dressing with a balanced, slow-release fertiliser combined with regular watering.
- On established forsythia plants, cut back up to a fifth of the oldest shoots to their base, to encourage robust new growth and to improve flowering.
