Ginkgo Tree Seeds

Perennial, deciduous, dioecious tree native to eastern China. Ginkgo  is not self-fertile, it is dioecious (individual flowers are either male or female, but only one sex is to be found on any one plant). Both male and female plants must be grown if seed is required.  We cannot sex our seeds until they germinate, grow and become adults, which may take years, so its pot luck as far as sexual identity is concerned.  The trees are resilient, adaptable to the inner city or the farm. Trees prefer full sun, moderately moist soil, and are highly sensitive about their roots–they do not like root disturbance.
