Description
Forsythia (x) intermedia Goldraush is a new variety of forsythia that will delight enthusiasts as it announces the return of spring so brilliantly. It forms a large shrub with an upright and regular habit and develops strong branches covered with large golden yellow flowers, grouped in very tight clusters. Wonderful in the garden, its flowering will also be very beautiful in vases in winter or spring bouquets.
Forsythia x intermedia Goldraush is a deciduous shrub belonging to the olive family. It descends from a spontaneous hybrid resulting from two species native to China, Forsythia suspensa and F. viridissima. It will reach a maximum of 2.50 m (8 ft 2 in) in all directions (on average 2 m (6 ft 7 in)), to create a regular, well-rounded, well-branched shrub with a dense growth habit. Like other forsythias, it provides a real spring spectacle in March-April, before the appearance of its foliage. Its one-year-old and older branches are particularly floriferous: they are literally covered with numerous bell-shaped flowers, 4 cm (1.6 in) in diameter, grouped in small clusters along the branches. Each flower has 4 petals and stamens of a warm and bright yellow around a small red throat. Flowering is followed by the appearance of the foliage. The leaves of this variety are a dark green colour from spring to summer, before turning orange and violet in autumn. They are long, pointed leaves measuring 8 to 10 cm (3.1 to 3.9 in) long, with dentate edges.
Forsythia Goldraush is perfectly hardy, undemanding and very easy to maintain. It grows in any type of sufficiently deep soil and in most climates. This particularly ornamental variety finds its place in gardens of all sizes. It can be placed in a large shrub bed or in a flowering hedge, alongside Japanese quinces, Japanese spireas, Cotinus (Cotinus coggygria Lilla), or even with mahonias, lilacs, mock oranges, Berberis, and many others shrubs. In early December, cut a branch or two and put them in a vase, they will bloom for Christmas.

Planting and care
Forsythia intermedia Goldraush appreciates a sunny position but tolerates partial shade (especially in hotter and sunnier regions). Place it in any ordinary soil, even clay or chalky soil that is deep enough and well drained. Enrich with compost when planting. After flowering, you can remove half or two-thirds of the height of the flowering branches to rejuvenate the shrub and ensure good quality flowering for the following spring. During the first three years, a simple removal of dead, weak or misplaced stems will be sufficient.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
