Forsythia for Chinese New Year: Staging Branches for Bloom
Winter–spring
Bright yellow forsythia was a focus of the farm’s Chinese New Year branch program, with wild and tall grades selected for strong visual presence.



Timing is part of the product
The original email explained that the farm staged branches to bloom a few days after arrival under suitable conditions. This is a planning goal, not a fixed guarantee: starting bud stage and receiving conditions affect opening.
Build a mixed branch program
Salmon quince, white quince, double quince, pussy willow and lavender or white tulip magnolia appeared alongside forsythia. Share the size of your display and your color needs when asking about substitutions.
