25 to 50' tall. 25 to 35' wide. Partial shade to full sun. Hailed as “undoubtedly one of the most distinct and beautiful of all deciduous trees,” the ginkgo certainly stands out. Unique, fan-shaped leaves turn a stunning yellow color in the fall. It can tolerate many urban conditions including heat, air pollution, salt and confined spaces. And it establishes easily. This tree also comes with a bit of history. It is a living fossil, with the earliest leaf fossils date from 270 million years ago.
