Description

Ginkgo Autumn Gold brings a stunning splash of fall brilliance to the landscape with its fan-shaped leaves that transform into a gorgeous golden yellow each autumn. Its compact, columnar form is ideally suited for Michigan’s cooler climate, making it a refined statement tree for smaller urban settings or landscaped spaces. This tree is celebrated for its polished appearance and consistent, tidy growth that adds a refreshing accent year-round—even when dormant in winter. While ginkgo trees do produce fruit, this cultivar is grown primarily for its striking foliage and is not focused on fruit production.

General Care

  • Sunlight: Thrives in full sun, requiring at least 6 hours of direct light daily to achieve the finest fall color.
  • Watering: Water regularly after planting to establish strong roots, once established, needs only occasional watering during extended dry periods
  • Mulching: A 2–3 inch layer of mulch around the base helps retain soil moisture and stabilize temperature—ensure mulch is kept slightly away from the trunk to promote airflow.
  • Pruning: Minimal pruning is needed; remove any dead or crossing branches in late winter or early spring to maintain a neat, polished structure.

Ginkgo Autumn Gold adds a stunning, uplifting accent to Michigan landscapes, offering a refreshing blend of timeless elegance and seasonal brilliance that captivates throughout the year.
