Special comments :
The Ginkgo biloba (all cultivars), is in fact a conifer. The leaves are made of needles attached to each other; Like the Larch, it loses its "leaves" in autumn; Dioecious tree: male and female flowers are found on separate feet. Rustic, resistant to urban pollution and very good longevity.
