Gingko Trees: Living Fossils with Unique Beauty.

Ginkgo trees, often known as maidenhair trees, are truly remarkable plants with a history stretching back over 200 million years—long before dinosaurs roamed the earth! There’s something magical about having such a ‘living fossil’ in the garden, and the ginkgo’s unique beauty only adds to its appeal. With its distinctive, fan-shaped leaves and elegant, upright form, the ginkgo brings a touch of timeless charm and structure to any landscape. Its foliage is unlike anything else you’ll find, adding a captivating texture that stands out in borders, lawns, or as a standalone feature.

Stunning Autumn Display of Golden Foliage.

One of the real highlights of a ginkgo tree is its breathtaking autumn display. As the temperatures drop, the leaves turn from green to a brilliant, buttery yellow, creating a spectacle of colour that lights up the garden. The leaves are known for falling in unison, often carpeting the ground with golden hues overnight—a sight that is simply unforgettable. This display of vibrant yellow brings warmth to the garden just as most other plants are starting to fade, making ginkgo a star performer in the autumn garden.

Resilient and Easy to Care For

Despite its exotic looks, the ginkgo is wonderfully resilient and well-suited to the UK climate. It tolerates a wide range of soil types, copes well with pollution, and is remarkably pest- and disease-resistant, making it ideal for urban and rural settings alike. Ginkgos thrive in full sun but can handle partial shade, making them adaptable to different garden layouts. Once established, they require minimal maintenance—just an occasional tidy-up of fallen leaves in autumn. For gardeners who want a striking tree without the constant care, ginkgo is a perfect choice.

Wildlife Appeal and Year-Round Interest.

Though not traditionally thought of as a wildlife tree, ginkgo still offers benefits to the garden ecosystem. Its canopy provides shelter for birds and small animals, and its dense foliage makes it a safe haven during the summer months. Additionally, the tree’s sturdy, sculptural form adds interest to the garden even in winter, when its bare branches create a beautiful silhouette. For gardeners looking to combine beauty, history, and resilience, a ginkgo tree is an inspired choice, bringing structure, seasonal colour, and a touch of ancient wonder to the garden.
