Ginkgo not dropping leaves.

This is basically a small seedling that's about five or six inches tall at this point. I'm still not sure if I'm going to turn it into a bonsai or just plant it once it gets a little bigger, but I've got it in a container outside at this point.

The ginkgo in question had its leaves turn yellow around the same time all of the other ginkgoes in the area were doing the same, except the leaves on mine never dropped. I moved it to a protected area on the porch once it got colder because it's in a container, so it was never exposed to the strong winds we've been getting which caused most of the planted ginkgoes to lose their leaves very quickly.

The rest of the tree appears to be alright. I mean, the buds look fine, I don't have any reason to expect rot, it hasn't been exposed to any terribly strong cold snaps.

Any idea what's going on here?
