Corylopsis spicata ‘Golden Spring’ PP13821

Fragrant, pale yellow, drooping flower racemes decorate the branches of this deciduous shrub in late winter.  Early spring leaves are brilliant yellow and contrast nicely with rose hued leaf scales at petiole bases.  Leaf color fades to a soft chartreuse by summer with deep, decorative veining.  Arching layered branches form an open, graceful shrub 2-3’.  Well drained, acidic soils, moderate moisture, bright shade or morning sun.
