Ginkgo Biloba is an ancient tree from China with unique fan-shaped leaves.
Ginkgo leaves start out green but change to golden-yellow in the fall. Before the whole leaf turns golden, there is sometimes a stage during which the leaf is two-toned, with separate bands of gold and green.
While it loses its leaves in winter, this ancient tree is classified as a conifer. These trees will generally do well in USDA planting zones 4 through 9.
The Ginkgo Biloba I Actually Received
I received Ginkgo Tree with a few leaves on it. It’s about 13 inches in height. I’ve had for about a week outside. It’s been a rainy week. I think the Ginkgo is wilting due to overwatering!
