One of the oldest surviving tree species on Earth, often called a living fossil due to its lineage dating back over 200 million years. Native to China, this extraordinary tree is beloved for its fan shaped leaves, brilliant golden autumn color, and incredible resilience. Revered in traditional gardens and temples, Ginkgo makes an exceptional bonsai or landscape specimen, offering both historic significance and timeless beauty.
Light 🌞

Soil 🕳️
Use well draining soil with moderate fertility. Ginkgo adapts well to various soil types as long as drainage is sufficient.
Fertilizing 🧪
Feed during spring and summer with a balanced fertilizer to encourage healthy development.
Repotting 🪴
Repot container grown specimens as needed, especially during early growth stages. Bonsai specimens may require more structured root pruning.
