Nursery contributed plant descriptions

About half of the leaf is white. Not a normal variegation lengthwise but across the leaf like the clouds. Very slow and will need shade in the afternoon.
This unique dwarf ginkgo (6-10') sends out fantastic, soft creamy-gold new leaves in spring. As summer sets in the foliage begins to turn a rich deep-green with incredibly lovely creamy-white leaf edges. Those edges bleed back in showy splashes and streaks. In autumn the leaves return to bright shades of gold. This slow-growing dwarf is perfect for container or accent. S-PSh/M-GDr
