Forsythia

Some people call it Easter Tree but I just call it forsythia. This pretty shrub with yellow flowers shaped like bells is one of my favorite aspects of spring.

There’s an old wive’s tale that says there will be three more snows after the forsythia blooms. Sometimes that’s true and sometimes it’s not. It is Ohio after all, so we could have flurries, a blizzard or record high heat. It’s hard to tell!

What we do know for sure is that all the yellow of daffodils and forsythia dress up the landscape and make it feel like spring!
