| Planted in 1988 at 5 ft. tall. Appears to be a seedling. No evidence of a graft. As you can see a narrow growth habit with all limbs growing somewhat on the vertical. Unlike all Ginkgo's growing in my area of Eastern Kansas which are shorter in stature with more girth. Dave

| Are you trying to determine if it is a particular cultivar? |

| "Are you trying to determine if it is a particular cultivar"? Since I have only small dwarf Ginkgo cultivars I am not sure if this is species or some cultivar. How to put a handle on it I am not quite sure. I am hoping someone can identify it. I know it's a long shot. Dave |

| If a seedling, would it be named? Growth is similar to 'Sentry'. tj |
|
| That is what we'd consider a fine specimen that has superior branching and a strong central leader. More so than many named cultivars. Would you say this tree is about 35' tall? If so it is quite vigorous as well. |
|
| I'd say it is Ginkgo biloba for sure. Definitely not any of the other species of Ginkgo. (or have you got a secret time machine the rest of us don't know about? ;-) |
|
| I don't see other Ginkgo species mentioned. Is the new edit feature making posts completely vanish? If so, this could get confusing fast. |
