Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Despite the name 'Thelma', this really is a male Ginkgo! Interesting foliage that can be quite variable, narrow somewhat tubular leaves dress this charming 10' tree/shrub, the leaves are especially pretty in fall when the unusually shaped leaves turn from emerald green to a rich buttery yellow; an interesting and sure-to-be-mentioned accent that can fit in any size garden.

Named for that chick that drove off the cliff in a caddy, for reasons that should be apparent to anyone.

New foliage is small and deeply fimbriated, then enlarges from the leaf base and forms a semi-tubular, or cup shaped mature leaf with divided edges. Different and very nice. There is still confusion about how large this plant will grow. We feel sure it will grow more than the 6' by 6' we thought at first.
