Notes
'Gold Tide' border forsythia (Forsythia 'Gold Tide') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and loamy or clay soil. It blooms in early to late spring and is drought tolerant. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. The shrub stays compact at 18 to 24 inches tall and wide.
Pairs well with Pink Impression tulip, Blue fescue, and Bobo hydrangea.
