Stunning Ginkgo Biloba 33cm

Ginkgo Biloba 33cm

The Ginkgo biloba bonsai tree has unique, fan shaped leaves which turn a beautifully deep golden colour in the autumn before dropping off for the winter. It is thought to have been around for over 200 million years and is often referred to as a ‘living fossil’. Its revered medicinal properties as well as its historical value make it an attractive species for bonsai. 

This beautiful ginkgo bonsai tree is standing at approximately 33cm tall in a rectangular blue glazed oriental pot with a depth of 12cm and width of 14cm. This ginkgo features an s-shaped trunk and lovely leaves.

Placement: 

Choose an outdoor location that receives full sun but protect from strong wind and scorching sunlight in the hottest part of summer days. The more light it receives, the more vibrant yellow the leaves will be in autumn. 
Protect from frost in winter.  

Watering and feeding:   

They must be watered generously as soon as the top inch of soil gets dry. Do not let the soil dry out fully and avoid constant wetness. See our watering guide.
Only feed periodically during the growing season (March-Oct). 

Pruning and wiring:  

Constant trimming of new shoots will help to thicken the trunk of the ginkgo. Conduct heavier pruning during early to late spring.
The ginkgo can be trained using wires all year round and the branches are quite flexible. The bark however is very delicate, and we recommend to wiring with care and checking that the wires do not bite in which will leave scarring. 

Repotting: 

Repot in early spring with a well-draining bonsai soil mix.
