- Description
Not your average forsythia.
Flying Machine® is a very special forsythia that comes to us from Dr. Kyung Ku Shim of South Korea. Its enormous flowers of deep, true golden-yellow fall from the branches intact, resulting in a doubly dramatic display: the first when it blooms, the second when its fallen blossoms carpet the ground. This large forsythia is ideal for hedging or unforgettable specimen.
