Description
Forsythia x intermedia 'Lynwood' is a popular variety known for its generous size and spectacular floribundity. It forms a deciduous bush of medium size with upright branches, covered from February with tight clusters of large, very bright yellow flowers. The oblong leaves, a dark green matte colour, appear later and are larger in this variety. In autumn, its leaves turn yellow with violet spots. Its exceptional vigour and fairly rapid growth make it perfect for creating beautiful hedges or planting at the back of winter beds in large gardens. Hardy and undemanding, it is a classic bush for our gardens and its cultivation is truly accessible to everyone, even gardening novices.
Forsythia x intermedia 'Lynwood' is a deciduous bush belonging to the Oleaceae family. It descends from a spontaneous hybrid resulting from two species native to China, Forsythia suspensa and F. viridissima. Forsythia is an easy-going bush that thrives in any well-drained soil, even clayey or calcareous, and a sunny to semi-shaded exposure. Its bright early flowering announces the arrival of spring.
It will reach an average size of 2.5 m (8.2 ft) in all directions, showing from the start an upright and dense habit. 'Lynwood' provides a true spring spectacle from February to March, before the appearance of its foliage. Its one-year-old and older branches are particularly floriferous: they are literally covered with numerous bell-shaped flowers measuring 4 cm (1.6 in) in diameter, grouped in tight clusters along the branches. Each flower has 4 petals and stamens of a bright and luminous yellow around a small red throat. Flowering is followed by the appearance of the foliage. The leaves of this variety are a dark green colour from spring to summer, before turning orange and violet in autumn. These are long pointed leaves measuring 10 cm to 12 cm (3.9 in to 4.7 in) in length, with dentate edges.
Forsythia x intermedia 'Lynwood' is perfectly hardy, low-maintenance and very easy to care for. It grows in any sufficiently deep soil and under most climates. This particularly ornamental variety suits gardens of all sizes. It can be planted in a large shrub bed or in a flowering hedge, along with Japanese quinces, Japanese kerrias, Cotinus (Cotinus coggygria 'Lilla'), or even with mahonias, lilacs, mock oranges, Berberis, and many others according to the tastes of each gardener. In early December, cut a branch or two and put them in a vase so they will bloom in time for Christmas.

Planting and care
Forsythia intermedia 'Lynwood' enjoys a sunny exposure but tolerates partial shade (especially in hotter and sunnier regions). Place it in any ordinary soil, even clay or limestone, deep and loosened, enriched with compost at planting. After flowering, optionally remove half or two-thirds of the height of the flowering branches to rejuvenate the bush and ensure a quality flowering in the following spring. During the first 3 years, a simple prune of dead, weak or misplaced stems will be sufficient.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
