Ginkgo Biloba
Ginkgo biloba is one of the oldest trees found on earth. It is a fan-shaped , deciduous bonsai that is highly prized for its yellow-golden autumn coloration. It is also known as the tree of a thousand crowns. Its growth is very slow, and it takes years to form a good-sized bonsai, even in open ground. It enjoys the sun and tolerates heat well. The characteristics of the species mean that it is a bonsai that goes a little out of the canons of traditional aesthetics, it is a tree a little apart but this is also what makes it interesting within a collection!
