Ginkgo biloba Tubifolia (Maidenhair Tree)

Ginkgo biloba 'Tubifolia' (Maidenhair Tree) is a deciduous conifer of broadly spreading habit, adorned with a canopy of unusual, fan-shaped, curled leaves, some tightly enough to resemble slender tubes. The foliage turns brilliant golden yellow in the fall. A moderate grower, 6-12 in. per year (15-30 cm), this graceful Maidenhair Tree is attractive in all seasons – Even in winter, when its stark silhouette bristles with spiky buds, given the tree an exotic charm. This male cultivar does not produce the distinctive fruit and is perfect as an accent for locations requiring a smaller tree. One of the most pollution-tolerant trees.
