Ginkgo biloba 'Fairmount' Ginkgo biloba 'Fairmount'

An American selection with a narrow, pyramidal manner of growth that grows slowly, particularly when young. The main stem grows remarkably straight and often bears lateral branches as low as the trunk base. Height 15 - 25 m, eventual width to approx. 9 m. The fan-shaped leaves and flower buds are on short shoots. The leaves grow in bundles of 3-5 together and have an incised top. Adding decorative value is the golden yellow colour this tree turns in autumn. 'Fairmount' is a male selection that is excellently suited as a street and avenue tree, thanks to its lack of fruit. It requires a site with ample light and tolerates heat well. Winter hardiness zone: 5a
