Japanese kerria's stems grow 3–6 feet in height (the shrub grows to a width that's also about 3-6 feet). These stems are bright green in color and remain so during the winter. Yellow "button" flowers dot the stems, as shown in the photo above.
Japanese kerria produces an abundance of flowers over several weeks in spring (later than forsythia)....
