Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Another great plant that Dale Deppe brought back from Korea, Suwan is shade tolerant with excellent golden foliage and clear yellow flowers; bud hardiness is excellent.
Something new - a forsythia with vivid yellow leaves, so the yellow you love in the spring keeps going all season. Excellent also in partial shade.
