"is it still technically a conifer???? "

Nope! A gymnosperm, but not a conifer. But philosophically, for the purposes of the Conifer Forum, no harm in calling it one.

It is one of the easier trees to move at large sizes, I've seen a 13-14m tall Ginkgo moved successfully at Edinburgh Botanic Gardens. Go ahead and make the move.

I need to get my eyes checked. I thought you were mooning a Ginkgo. Or was it mooing (holy cow).

Actually, Ken I've only moved a small one, so I'm not much help, but it never missed a beat. It is actually what was the understock of 'Munchkin'. The cultivar died (after three years), but the understock lived. I learned later this is a bad habit of this cultivar. Since I don't know if its male or female (no comments about Ginkgo balls, please) nor do I have the room, I will probably plant it in some obscure pasture somewhere.

Ken, I have moved a 6 foot Ginko tree without any problems.
I have also moved 3 of the ultra-dwarf 'green pagoda' and had no problems with them either (of course they are about 12 inches tall).

its a variegated ginkgo ... not one of the most vigorous. . ken
