Autumn Gold Maidenhair Tree

Whether or not Ginkgo biloba supplements are a good investment in your health is debatable, but whether the Ginkgo biloba tree is a good investment for your landscape is beyond question! This majestic shade tree will line your driveway, shade your deck, or accent your home in style, providing many years of enjoyment. Autumn Gold Ginkgo’s fan-shaped leaves will delight you in fall when they turn brilliant yellow and drop all at once. Your family might hold a friendly wager on when they’ll fall! The ultimate legacy tree, the Ginkgo tree is capable of living hundreds—even thousands—of years, so plant it where it may live out a long and glorious life. With no living relatives, the Ginkgo is one of the oldest trees in the world. Sometimes called “a living fossil," it appears unchanged from fossils found 270 million years ago. When the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima in 1945, six Ginkgo trees were found to be the only surviving plants. Soon after the blast, they began to bud without any major deformities and are still alive today. Thus, Japan regards the Ginkgo as “the bearer of hope. " After planting this outstanding tree, you will never forget its beauty! It has unusual fan-shaped leaves with distinct veins, and it is the only tree with lobed leaves in America. It turns an incredible clear yellow color in fall, putting on a wonderful display. It’s free of pests, and don’t worry about any horror stories you may have heard about its foul-smelling fruit—Autumn Gold is a male selection, and so will not produce any fruit.

A long-living shade tree, you'll want to be sure to plant in an area where its legacy can reign for a long time. Great for use in lining a driveway or planted as a singular focal point, Autumn Gold will color any area with its fantastic fall color. The fan-shaped leaves add a touch of distinctness that only a maidenhair can provide
