Extra scale for installations

The email pictured Adam with “Super Wild” forsythia at seven feet or more. Tips, medium and tall grades were also mentioned, showing that this dramatic cut was one option within the wider program.

Early quince needs flexible color expectations

The newsletter described roughly four-foot double quince that was very light in color when forced early. Patrick explained that color deepens later, so a particular saturated shade could not be promised from those early cuts.

A broader Chinese New Year palette

Salmon and white quince, peach, pussy willow and tulip magnolia accompanied the forsythia. The historical message encouraged early booking; current lengths, stages and quantities should be confirmed with the farm.
