Update

Taihua confirms that to date, the weather conditions have not been optimal for the 2015 Forsythia harvest as there has been a substantial frost.

As previously announced, there are two key stages in the production of Forsythia, that of the flowering period, when it is important it is damp and there is no frost and the harvest period, when it is equally important there is no frost. To date there has been frost during the flowering season. At this stage, it is too early to tell what the actual impact on the Forsythia harvest will be but it is anticipated that as a consequence of the frost, the volume of the Forsythia harvest will be smaller than previous years. Further updates will be provided in due course.
