Everything You Need to Know About Forsythia 'Goldrausch' (Forsythia) - flowering shrub - 17 cm pot - Height 45 cm
When does Forsythia 'Goldrausch' bloom and how long does the flowering period last?
Forsythia 'Goldrausch' (Forsythia intermedia) is one of the first shrubs to bloom in our gardens, often as early as mid-February in mild regions and in March in colder areas. The flowering period generally lasts 3 to 4 weeks, depending on the temperatures: a mild and dry spring prolongs it, while a late frost can cut it short. The flowers appear directly on the bare wood, before any leaves, creating a striking visual effect of entirely golden branches.
How to prune Forsythia 'Goldrausch' so that it blooms again every year?
The rule 'is to prune the Forsythia 'Goldrausch'immediately after flowering, in April, never before or in autumn. Indeed, the flower buds of the 'following year form on the current year's shoots during the 'spring and 'summer: pruning in winter would mean removing all future blooms. Cut the flowering shoots by 'one-third of their length and remove the oldest and most woody branches at the base, in order 'to encourage the 'growth of vigorous new shoots from the base.
Is Forsythia 'Goldrausch' suitable for forming a hedge?
Yes, the Forsythia 'Goldrausch' is a classic and highly effective choice for creating a flowering hedge. Its rapid growth, which can reach 40 to 60 cm per year in good conditions, allows it to form a dense plant screen in just a few years. For a free-form, untrimmed hedge, space the plants 1.5 to 2 m apart; for a more compact and formal hedge, reduce the 'spacing to 1 m and prune after each flowering. Combined with 'other shrubs with staggered flowering (such as lilac or weigela), it guarantees a continuous visual effect from spring to 'summer.
What exposure should I choose for planting Forsythia 'Goldrausch'?
The Forsythia 'Goldrausch' thrives best in full sun, where the flowering is most abundant and the colors most intense. It tolerates light partial shade, especially under large trees that lose their leaves late and do not yet cast 'shade during the spring flowering, but the density of the flowers will be less. In regions with very hot summers, exposure to 'east allows 'to avoid sunburn on the summer leaves.
Is Forsythia 'Goldrausch' frost-resistant and hardy in France?
Forsythia 'Goldrausch' (Forsythia intermedia) is an extremely hardy shrub, capable of withstanding temperatures as low as -20°C without any winter protection. It is perfectly suited to all regions of France, including the mountainous areas, the north and the east of the country where winters are harsh. The plant itself is not damaged by the cold, but its early flowers, which open as early as February, can be damaged by a late frost: the plant is not permanently affected and will bloom normally the following year.
In what type of soil can Forsythia 'Goldrausch' be planted?
O'ne of the great strengths of Forsythia 'Goldrausch' is its remarkable adaptability to different soil types. It grows in almost all types of soil: loamy, clay, sandy, alkaline, or slightly acidic, provided that drainage is sufficient to prevent r'oot asphyxiation. It tolerates poor soils, but adding compost at planting accelerates establishment and promotes more vigorous growth in the first year. The ideal pH is between 6 and 7.5; beyond this, a light acidic amendment may be useful.
Which plants to pair with Forsythia 'Goldrausch' in the garden?
Forsythia 'Goldrausch' pairs beautifully with other spring-flowering shrubs to create a calendar-effect border. Combine it with white forsythia or pink-flowering spiraeas (such as Spiraea japonica) for an elegant color contrast. In a mixed hedge, plant it alongside a lilac (Syringa vulgaris) or red weigela for a succession of blooms from February to June. In the foreground, spring bulbs (yellow daffodils, tulips, crocuses) extend and enhance the golden palette of the flowers.
The essentials about Forsythia 'Goldrausch' (Forsythia) - flowering shrub - 17 cm pot - Height 45 cm
Forsythia 'Goldrausch' (Forsythia intermedia): characteristics and benefits
The Forsythia 'Goldrausch' (Forsythia intermedia) is the quintessential spring-flowering shrub in temperate gardens. Native to East Asia and selected for its exceptional floral abundance, it stands out for its brilliant golden-yellow blooms that burst at the end of winter on completely bare branches. Its rapid growth and remarkable hardiness (down to -20°C) make it an essential feature in French gardens, from coastal areas to mountain massifs. Deciduous, it offers winter transparency and summer density, providing a clearly defined seasonal rhythm.
Where to plant the Forsythia? Exposure and hardiness
Forsythia 'Goldrausch' requires plenty of sun to achieve its full floral abundance. Plant it in a location receiving at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day, in the middle of a flowerbed, along the edge of a lawn, or along a south- or west-facing fence. It is completely frost-resistant in all regions of France: no climate zone is too harsh for it.

How to care for Forsythia 'Goldrausch'?
Soil: adapts to all types of well-drained soil, whether loamy, clay, limestone, or sandy; adding compost at planting speeds up establishment.
Watering: regular during the first season to promote root development, then it becomes almost self-sufficient in subsequent years thanks to its deep roots.
Pruning: prune immediately after flowering in April, never in autumn or winter; remove old wood at the base and shorten the flowering branches by one-third.
Exposure: full sun for maximum flowering; light partial shade is tolerated, but flowering will be less abundant.
Forsythia 'Goldrausch' in the garden: flowering, foliage and combinations
The great spectacle begins in February in milder regions and in March in more continental areas: the entire branches of Forsythia 'Goldrausch' are literally covered with small, warm, luminous yellow star-shaped flowers before the leaves even appear. This effect of golden branches, particularly striking against a still-cold winter sky, lasts 3 to 4 weeks. From April, the plain green foliage takes over, and the shrub then plays its role as a summer screen or a backdrop for mass plantings.
