The New Hampshire Gold Forsythia, Forsythia x 'New Hampshire Gold', was developed in New Hampshire, and is an excellent cold hardy selection. The best way to insure a good flower show is to plant this cold hardy cultivar, especially if you live in a particularly cold, windswept area. Its habit is drooping and mounded. 'New Hampshire Gold' is a deciduous shrub noted for its colorful yellow spring flowers appearing before the foliage. The foliage is a handsome maroon color. All it requires is a sunny area and well drained soil. It's also a very easy plant to grow and transplants well. It is important to prune a forsythia after it blooms. Forsythia, like other early blooming shrubs, develop their flower buds during the summer and fall of the previous year. 'New Hampshire Gold''s height is a bit shorter than others.
