Common Name:
Autumn Gold Maidenhair Tree
Description:
Ginkgo biloba ‘Autumn Gold’ is a striking, deciduous tree known for its symmetrical, upright growth habit and brilliant golden-yellow autumn foliage. This male cultivar of the ancient Maidenhair Tree is highly sought after for its elegant form, resistance to pests and pollution, and lack of the messy, odorous fruit produced by female ginkgo trees. Its distinctive, fan-shaped green leaves provide lush summer greenery before transforming into a spectacular golden display in autumn. Autumn Gold thrives in well-drained soil and full sun, tolerating urban conditions, heat, drought, and poor soils, making it an excellent choice for streetscapes, avenue planting, and large gardens.
