Description

Ginkgo Biloba Mariken delivers an inspiring, sculptural focal point for any Michigan landscape. This dwarf cultivar, renowned for its unique fan-shaped leaves, remains compact—reaching only 3–4 feet in height while spreading gracefully to 7–8 feet. In full sun, its foliage maintains a rich green color throughout the growing season before transforming into a brilliant golden-yellow display each fall. As a male cultivar, it produces no fruit, ensuring a clean and satisfying look year after year. Perfect for container plantings or as a solitary specimen, Ginkgo Biloba Mariken is a stunning, pollution-tolerant addition that adds fresh architectural interest to even the smallest spaces.

General Care

  • Sunlight: Thrives in full sun; at least 6 hours of direct light daily is ideal for vibrant growth and fall color.
  • Watering: Provide regular moisture during establishment; once mature, this resilient tree performs well with minimal supplemental water.
  • Mulching: Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch around the base to conserve moisture and stabilize soil temperatures, keeping mulch slightly away from the trunk for optimal airflow.
  • Pruning: Minimal pruning is needed—simply remove any damaged or crossing branches in early spring to maintain a polished, neat form.

Ginkgo Biloba Mariken offers a lovely and refreshing accent to Michigan landscapes, blending compact stature, stunning fall color, and enduring architectural elegance for a truly captivating display.
