Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Small grower to maybe 3'-4' tall in many years. This tight small grower is wonderful for container or garden planting.
Tiny Ginkgo-shaped leaves (quarter size or less!) are densely arranged on the small irregular branches that radiate out from a semi-upright leader (stake or grow round); a real treat for bonsai and rock garden. S/M
A nice new dwarf ginkgo with miniature, half-sized leaves. Growth rate is around 4" yearly, nice for bonsai.
DWARF. Reportedly one of the best dwarf Ginkgos on the market at this time, with a more upright habit and numerous slender branches it has a tendency to be more regular in shape. The tiny leaves do not exceed the size of a quarter and are very dense on the plant. May eventually reach 6' but growth rate is around 4" a year. Excellent for bonsai or the rock garden.
