View prices and availability
Ginkgo biloba 'Simon' forms an attractive, almost shrubby small tree that eventually grows 2 to 3 m tall. At a young age, the crown is broadly oval, later growing into a vase-shaped crown. Branching is dense and the branches and twigs grow somewhat erratically, giving the tree an attractive, less austere appearance. The leaves have the fan shape characteristic of Ginkgo. In autumn, the green leaves turn deep yellow. Fine cultivar for more small-scale applications in parks, gardens, cemeteries, etc. The fact that the tree tolerates paving well contributes to the wide applicability of 'Simon'.
