‘Citrus Swizzle’ forsythia doesn't actually bloom, BUT it does have season long color that is just as spectacular as any show of forsythia blooms. The foliage of this dense, low-growing shrub emerges with a lime green center and ages to a creamy white variegation.

Also stays super compact!

As you can see these are lookers. Like other hellebore varieties they bloom in late Feburary and early March. The double flowers bloom a soft ivory and pink and they dry on the plant to a light green. The blooms can sometimes dry on the plant and stay through early summer.

"Frilly Kitty' is a welcome new variety, and it will add some thrills and frills to your early spring garden.

Spring means Tulips
