Default planting forsythia bushes

For somebody from New Jersey, you ask a lot of stupid questions. Have you
ever heard of doing a Google search?

If you had any sense at all you would plant something else instead.
Forsythia are cheap weedy shrubs that can quickly overrun you yard with
straggly growth. Most of the year they are an ugly mess. You wanting to
plant them show you to be a cheapskate with absolutely no imagination.

Almost anything else would be better. Try hardy shrub Hibiscus ("Rose of
Sharon") instead.

Hi all....I live in southern New Jersey...and wanted to know about
planting forsythia bushes. Just wondering a good time of year (early
spring maybe?) to plant them...and how many feet away from a stockade
fence?? And how far apart?
Any information will be great...thanks.
