Description:
A dwarf variety with a somewhat irregular growth habit; unique fan-shaped leaves on ascending branches turn rich golden-yellow in fall; can be pruned to form or maintained as a hedge
Ornamental Features
Tit Ginkgo is primarily valued in the landscape for its ornamental upright and spreading habit of growth. It has bluish-green deciduous foliage. The fan-shaped leaves turn an outstanding gold in the fall.
Landscape Attributes
Tit Ginkgo is an open deciduous tree with a strong central leader and an upright spreading habit of growth. Its average texture blends into the landscape, but can be balanced by one or two finer or coarser trees or shrubs for an effective composition.
This is a relatively low maintenance tree, and is best pruned in late winter once the threat of extreme cold has passed. Deer don't particularly care for this plant and will usually leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics.
Tit Ginkgo is recommended for the following landscape applications;
- Shade
- Vertical Accent
Planting & Growing
Tit Ginkgo will grow to be about 25 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 15 feet. It has a low canopy with a typical clearance of 2 feet from the ground, and should not be planted underneath power lines. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live to a ripe old age of 150 years or more; think of this as a heritage tree for future generations!
This tree should only be grown in full sunlight. It is very adaptable to both dry and moist locations, and should do just fine under average home landscape conditions. It is not particular as to soil type or pH, and is able to handle environmental salt. It is highly tolerant of urban pollution and will even thrive in inner city environments. Consider applying a thick mulch around the root zone in winter to protect it in exposed locations or colder microclimates. This is a selected variety of a species not originally from North America.
