Abeliophyllum distichum (ex: Joyce Fingerhut) - White Forsythia... not a Forsythia okay? Ach - the common names. This is the species of a fine multi-stemmed shrub. Fragrant “White Forsythia” with a dazzling display is so very welcome in the very early spring. It flowers about the same time in the circadian calendar as acual Forsythia. Its much smaller flowers are four-petaled which is another allusion to actual Forsythia. It is best to cut back after flowering for a tighter and more handsome plant; we generally cut ours back every couple of years. If not it will mound up to a wild shrub to 7 feet or more. Muted yellow to purple or purple-red foliage in most autumns. Site Abeiliophyllum distichum in full to part sun planted in average to fertile soil. Cutting grown.
