The name of this flowering shrub is the same in French as in English. One example I found on the Forvo application pronounced in English as [for-SIGH-thee-uh], but most say [for-SIH-thee-uh]. The -th- is said as in "thing" or "think", not as in "the" or "thus". In French it's pronounced something like [for-see-SYAH] with a French R and the stress on the third syllable. Ours has started blooming in our back yard now.
