Design with this plant

Overview

The Saratoga Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba 'Saratoga') is a deciduous conifer with unique, fan-shaped leaves that turn a vibrant yellow in fall. A slow-growing, columnar tree, it reaches 50-70ft in height with a 25-30ft spread. Ideal for urban settings, it's pest-resistant and tolerant of soil variations, but prefers well-drained sites. 'Saratoga' distinguishes itself with narrower, more refined leaves compared to the species, providing elegant texture in landscape designs.
