did i accidentally turn my forsythia bush into a backyard superstar?

Last spring, I got a little carried away with my pruning shears. My forsythia bush was looking wild, so I started snipping away, aiming for a cleaner look. I didn’t really have a plan—just wanted to see more sunlight hit the ground. A few weeks later, I realized I’d left a single tall stem, and it started to look like a mini tree! Turns out, forsythias can totally rock a tree shape if you trim the lower branches and let one strong stem take the lead. Now, it’s the highlight of my yard, especially when those yellow blooms explode in early spring. If you’re bored with the usual bushy look, give this a try. It’s fun to experiment and see your plants transform in unexpected ways. #gardeningtips #forsythia #backyardprojects #springblooms #Gardening
