I hope you don't mind Abe, that I printed your picture of the "adagio dancer" (the Sharp Shinned Hawk from your blog) so that Charles could have a good look at it.<br /><br />We had a most magnificent forsythia in our old 'lost' garden, - Charles kept it beautifully pruned and some day I will post a picture of it.Hildredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420791064923078834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31566611.post-91817985351383514862010-02-02T11:34:03.858-08:002010-02-02T11:34:03.858-08:00Hi Hildred, I had to laugh at the thought of Charl...Hi Hildred, I had to laugh at the thought of Charles getting a pruning glint in his eye! I love the thought of a bathtub of forsythia - send him out at once!

Soon though.<br /><br />I used to have a lot of forsythia bushes and always trimmed them back and stuck the bare branch just cut off into the ground where I wanted it to grow and by the end of that summer I had a very nice plant. I got some dwarf ones now and they are not prolific but will grow the same way.<br /><br />Not much use the dwarf. I never seen anything around the blooms.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31566611.post-55756077505770706852010-02-02T01:12:54.069-08:002010-02-02T01:12:54.069-08:00Nice pictures.
