The Saratoga Ginkgo Tree is a deciduous shade tree with a pyramidal crown and a strong central leader. It develops a dense crown sooner than other varieties of ginkgo, and it grows to a smaller size, reaching around 40 feet tall and 30 feet wide. It has unique lobed leaves of a reliable mid-green color, which turn beautiful tones of butter yellow in fall, making a remarkable display. This incredibly tough and reliable โliving fossilโ is a perfect lawn specimen and shade tree, and it makes a beautiful screen as well. Use it for difficult areas where other trees donโt thrive.
The Saratoga Ginkgo Tree is reliably hardy all across the country, from zone 4 to zone 9. It should be planted in full sun, and it grows in virtually all soils, except for ones that are permanently flooded. It has no pests or diseases, tolerates urban pollution and road salt, and it is remarkably durable and tough. It needs no particular care once it is established.
