Bossy bought a few bundles of Forsythia for her mom, who loves bundles of Forsythia, but doesn’t love Forsythia bushes because she thinks they look scraggly the rest of the year when not blooming. Such is a moment inside the head of Bossy’s mother.

March 29, 2011 at 11:29 amI also get it and won’t have a forsythia bush for the same reason. I LOVE seeing them in bloom along the highways.

March 29, 2011 at 2:35 pmRight there with you, BOSSY’s Mom. I also pretty much hate most shrubbery. Trees and flowers stay, the shrubs must go.

March 29, 2011 at 3:10 pmYeah, BOSSY’s Mom is right on. They also look scraggley when they are on the north side of a house and don’t get enough sunlight before they bloom. But I love the bright yellow.

March 29, 2011 at 8:43 pmI totally get it too! Someone needs to invent a forsythia bush that looks nicer when not blooming! Hmm….

March 30, 2011 at 12:18 pmThere were about 10-12 planted when we bought house. Hubby has been methodically removing. I think there are 2 left in front and 3 in back. Guessing 2 in front will be gone this year.

March 30, 2011 at 10:31 pmI agree! I planted a forsythia bush because I love the cut blooms in my house. A few years later, I dug up that scraggly-ass thing and gave it away.
