How to care for Forsythia × intermedia Lynwood Variety:

Plant in well-drained soil and a sunny or lightly shaded spot, where it will establish quickly and give the best display of spring flowers. Water regularly during dry spells in the first year to help roots settle, and mulch in spring to conserve moisture and suppress weeds.

Prune/trim hedges in late spring immediately after flowering, buds for the following year develop soon after flowering (check for nesting nesting birds prior to cutting) and mulch with a thick layer of organic matter after this. Trim the hedge for form in late July or August.
