Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.

  • Description

  • Notes

Lynwood forsythia is a naturally-occurring selection with abundant flowers that nearly cover the shrub in its entirety. As with other forsythia, it blooms before the foliage emerges, so it as a lovely spring sight. After flowers, it still has a gracefully arching habit if left in its natural state. Fall color is a dull burgundy. Grows about 6 to 9 feet tall and wide.
