RHS Hardiness Rating H6
Bred by William Flemer in New Jersey, probably as Forsythia × intermedia ‘Spectabilis’ × F. ovata ‘Tetragold’ (though the latter is a self-fertile tetraploid); a hardy forsythia with a densely domed habit (Dirr 2009). The deep green leaves turn purple in a Canadian autumn (Stewart 2021).
