Description

A very narrow, male selection, Ginkgo biloba 'Fastigiata' has cool green leaves in spring / summer which turn a clear yellow in autumn before falling. This is often used in street plantings both in Britain and abroad and there are many spectacular specimens lining the streets of inner London! A handsome tree for small gardens, as the narrow habit takes up little garden space.
