GINKGO BIL SARATOGA
Grower Notes:

Saratoga Ginkgo is a slower growing, open deciduous tree with a pyramidal crown and a strong central leader. It is considered one of the best cultivars for a dense, symmetrical branching habit, especially as a young tree. Its leaves differ from other cultivars in that they are elongated, pendulous and fan-shaped. Its mid-green color in summer matures to butter yellow by fall. This is a tough and reliable tree - actually a 'living fossil' that adapts to its surroundings well. It enjoys full sun and average, well-drained soil. Use it for difficult areas. It even thrives in city environments.
