Ginkgo 'Goldspire'
Discover the Ginkgo 'Goldspire', a distinguished French tree selection celebrated for its dense, narrowly pyramidal form, making it an exceptional choice for smaller gardens or as a striking street tree. This non-fruiting male Ginkgo thrives despite environmental stresses like pollution and heat. Its fan-shaped leaves emerge a rich green, turning a brilliant buttery yellow and gold in autumn. With a medium growth rate, it reaches a mature height of 14-16 feet and a spread of 5-6 feet, requiring minimal shaping after its initial years to maintain its elegant, upright habit.

What customers say
The unique columnar design of the 'Goldspire' is a major draw, consistently praised for fitting perfectly into smaller garden spaces. Consumers appreciate the reliable, striking golden fall foliage, confirming its strong aesthetic appeal. While the overall sentiment is positive, some feedback highlights initial concerns regarding the size and health of the plant upon arrival, suggesting that shipping quality could be more consistent. Once established, however, the tree performs beautifully, offering excellent long term value.
