Maidenhair Tree Menhir
This is an appealing columnar shaped cultivar of Ginkgo biloba. Its foliage is deciduous and unusually fan shaped. The Autumn foliage takes on a beautiful golden yellow colour. Also known as the Maidenhair tree, this cultivar is non-fruiting. This Ginkgo is particularly useful in a city environment as they are not a large growing tree and are exceptionally tolerant of air pollution. It is also a popular bonsai specimen too.
