Ginkgo 'Goldspire'

Far more dense and narrowly pyramidal than most, Ginkgo Goldspire™, a French tree selection, is a highly ornamental, non-fruiting (male). Tolerant of air pollution, heat, and other environmental stresses, it stands out brilliantly in the small garden or as a street tree.

New foliage emerges a rich shade of green, fan-shaped and delightfully curled. Ginkgo Goldspire™ tree keeps this color through summer, then turns buttery shades of yellow and gold in autumn before dropping. A magnificent sight.

Shear back this little Ginkgo Goldspire™ tree in early spring for the first 3 to 4 years to ensure that it develops a tight, dense habit. After 10 years' growth, it should reach about 14 to 16 feet high and just 5 to 6 feet wide.

At time of shipment this tree is approximately 1 foot tall. Its annual growth rate is medium, with height increases of 13 to 24 inches per year.
