What is the proper care for a forsynthia bush?

Answer by  BrendaG (6111)

Forsythia bushes grow rapidly and are low maintainance. Water regularly and fertilize once a year. If you want the forsythia to grow freely, place where it will have ample room to do just that. If you use for a hedge or prefer pruning, then prune as soon as flowers bloom.

Forsythia requires little care doing well in most soils, but it needs good drainage. Fertilize once in early spring w/a high phosphorous fertilizer to promote blooms. Pruning is up to you, according to how you want the bush to look, as a hedge or single- it takes well to shaping.

You can get away with pretty much little or no care for an established plant. For new plants, they require well-draining moist soil and fertilization once in the Spring.

The forsythia bush is a nearly carefree plant. The best thing to do for it is give it plenty of sunlight and occasionally trim back the branches. Aside from that, it does the rest on its own.
