Forsythia suspensa is a large shrub. It can be grown as a weeping shrub on stream banks and can be identified by its pale flowers. Garden cultivars can be found. It is a spring flowering shrub, with yellow flowers. It is grown and prized for its toughness. It is believed to be one of the parents of Forsythia × intermedia.
The care of weeping forsythias is a snap because they seldom need watering or fertilizer. If the soil is poor, apply a small amount of general purpose fertilizer over the root zone and water it in.
Weeping forsythia pruning is a snap. When you need to remove a branch, cut it back all the way to the ground. Cutting the shrub back by shortening the branches destroys its natural shape, and it can take three years or more to recover its natural beauty. One exception is that you may want to cut back the ends of stems that threaten to touch the ground to keep them from rooting.
