About two weeks ago a strong wind gust knocked down a heavy oak brunch and it, in turn, broke off two branches from my forsythia bush. I brought them in and put in the water. It's blooming now.We had some snow this morning, but on my mantel there's a small reminder about the spring that will eventually come.
Other good candidates for forcing the branches are cherry, quince and birch. The latter will sprout small, fresh-green leaves.
