Another colorful and effective border for your collard patch is Forsythia. This delightful "Sunrise" variety gives purple leaf color in the fall contrasting with the bright yellow in the spring.
It takes root well, grows quickly, and is ideal for the new gardener.
Sunrise Forsythia: "The Forsythia 'Sunrise', Forsythia x 'Sunrise', also known as Border Forsythia and Golden Bell, is a deciduous shrub noted for its colorful yellow spring flowers appearing before the foliage. All it requires is a sunny area and well-drained soil. It's also a very easy plant to grow and transplants well.This plant is good in container plantings, the border plantings, and as a specimen or ground cover. Prune after flowering to keep the plant compact and to thin it out. 'Sunrises' display a purple fall leaf color."
