Ginkgo biloba

The Ginkgo has witnessed the rise and fall of the dinosaurs. It can therefore rightfully be called a living fossil.

Baby

Here I am! Your very own baby ginkgo tree. I hope you will take good care of me. Put me somewhere indoors with lots of light and give me a little water every other day.

After 2 weeks

After 2 weeks of pampering, it is time for a larger pot! Preferably a pot of 2 litres or more with holes for drainage underneath (so I don’t ‘drown’).

Outside

You can now put me outside. Put me in partial shade for a week or so, so I can acclimatise to the harsh sun. In autumn my leaves turn yellow before I shed them.

Teenager

What you nurture will grow. I do my very best. Once I am twice the height of my pot, it is time for a larger home.

Fertilizer & temperature

In summer, I thrive outside in a sunny and warm spot. I get a little peckish when I develop new leaves and will be very grateful for a little extra plant food! 

​

You need not worry about me in winter. I can tolerate temperatures of -35°C during dormancy.
