Asymmetrical large tree, (12) 15-25 (30) m tall, 10-15 m wide; stiffly upright when young, later broadly conical to asymmetrically round-crowned; branches arching upward, twigs horizontal, pendent in the lower crown; initially very slow-growing, after ca. 5 years medium-growing, 30-50 cm per year

Cordate roots, very sensitive to soil compaction; suffers from competition from aggressive ground covering neighbours after planting

Demands

Sun to light shade, tolerates heat, usually frost hardy, occasionally sensitive to late frost; resistant to urban pollution; wind resistant

Soil

Dry to fresh; acidic to alkaline; on all nutritious substrates, heavy soil unfavourable as it increases frost damage; not tolerant of salt (!). Nativ

Note

It is only a myth that male and female Ginkgo specimen are recognised by various leaf forms, various shooting times, and characteristic crown development.

Hardiness Zone

Zone 5a

Tip

Ginkgo biloba can be used surprisingly well on a trellis; cutting must be done in spring before leaves shoot
