a ginko

Post by Matthew »

here is my one and only ginko tree. Its a twin trunk and i quite like it. it originally came from shibui about 18 months ago and has developed well. autumn colour last year was second to none so ill update this when it changes. roots are good which is another thing hard to get with these. i have a nice pot it may go in in winter . height about 70cm

Two trunks even ;) luscious foliage, should look nice when it transforms to golden in a couple of months :cool:

Trident has a nice trunk & nebari, that'll be a cracker once the branch structure is worked on :tu:
Cheers, Ryan
