Question
I recently purchased a Forsythia from your store...it's in bloom right now and looks just awesome! I'm just wondering when is the best time to prune it? How much should I prune?

Answer
You can always prune some of your Forsythia right before it blooms so that you can have flowering stems in the house. Forsythia only needs pruning to control height and or to keep it in shape. The best time to prune is after flowering in late spring (May or early June). The flower buds for next year are formed by mid-summer; pruning too late will sacrifice next year’s blooms.
