After flowering is over, the shrub can be recognised by its leaves and habit: the leaves are dark green, broadly oval and bluntly pointed; the habit is broad, with curving shoots and root suckers.<\/p>\n<p>Korean forsythia is native to a small area in central Korea. It was first \u201dfound\u201d by the famous plant hunters Takenoshi Nakai and E. H. Wilson, by coincidence both in the same area, the K\u00fcmgangsan or Diamond Mountain in what is now North Korea, a spot famed for its natural beauty; and both discoveries happened the same year, 1917. The Korean species is one of the few forsythias hardy in Finland. It has been grown at Mustila since the 1930s. The shrubs winter well enough but flowering may be sparse.<\/p>\n<aside id=\"keywords\">\n<h2>Keywords<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"ryhmittely\">Lehtipuut ja -pensaat<\/li>\n<li class=\"plants\"><a href=\"\" hreflang=\"und\">Forsythia<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"plants\"><a href=\"\" hreflang=\"und\">Forsythia ovata<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"location\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/alueet\/etelarinne\" hreflang=\"fi\">Etel\u00e4rinne<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"location\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/alueet\/havuterassi\" hreflang=\"fi\">Havuterassi<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/aside>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8445,"template":"","alueet":[889,1015],"kasvilajit":[1095,1604],"class_list":["post-15588","kasvit","type-kasvit","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","alueet-etelarinne","alueet-havuterassi-en","kasvilajit-deciduous_trees_and_shrubs","kasvilajit-forsythia"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kasvit\/15588","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kasvit"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/kasvit"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8445"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15588"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"alueet","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/alueet?post=15588"},{"taxonomy":"kasvilajit","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mustila.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kasvilajit?post=15588"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
