Ginkgo Tree

1. Planting: Select a spot that takes the mature height and width of your Ginkgo Tree into consideration. And give it an area surrounded by well-draining, preferably sandy soil, as well as ample sunlight.

When you're ready to plant, dig a hole twice as wide and a little deeper than the root ball. Soak the Ginkgo Tree in a bucket of water before planting. Once the roots are hydrated, place the tree in the hole. The surface of the root ball should be about 1 inch below ground level. Replace the soil you removed from the bottom of the hole, filling in around the root ball, then water the planting site.

2. Watering: Water your Ginkgo Tree regularly each week and more often as necessary during hot, dry periods.

3. Fertilizing: There is no need to add fertilizer as Ginkgo Trees will thrive with the nutrients available in the soil. If you do, you can fertilize with a general purpose fertilizer before new growth begins in the spring.

4. Pruning: Pruning early to develop one central leader is highly recommended to ensure healthy, strong development.
