Forsythia viridissima, variously called the Chinese golden bell tree, green-stemmed forsythia, greenstem forsythia, and Korean forsythia, is a species of flowering plant in the genus Forsythia, native to southern China and South Korea, and introduced to Japan and the United States.[2][3] It flowers about two weeks later than other forsythias.[4] It may be of hybrid origin[5] and is believed to be one of the parents of Forsythia × intermedia.
