This is actually very nice Steve! Ginko leaves are very distinctive and watch out if you step on or crush 1 of its "seed pods". Whew! Stink
? Puts a skunk to shame sometimes!
They can stain the paint on a car if left on for any amount of time.
Nice and vibrant Steve!

Thanks Dan. The seed pods which fall and rot on the ground in September and October do have a strong stink to them. There are two 80 foot Gingko trees in the front of the building live in. There used to be an elderly lady who would come by periodically and pick up the pods. In Chinese medicine, they are prized as an herb with special medicinal properties.

When I was in HS, our biology teacher gave a an assignment to put together a leaf collection. To get an "A", we had to have a gingko leaf in our collection. AT that time, no one had ever heard of a Ginko tree. But one enterprising student knew of it and where in the town it was found. As I recall, it cost $5.00 for him to supply a leaf. By the end, the small tree was practically stripped of its leaves. Thanks for the memory, Steve!

The "ginko" is probably thee most planted "city" tree around here. It is used between the street curb and sidewalk and grows rapidly...It can be stinky but it is indeed pretty.

That’s a female tree, they are stinky. I have a few males of different variety, mostly dwarfs in pots that I hope to one day plant in my yard. They are beautiful trees.
