Add timeless beauty and exceptional texture to your landscape with Folkert’s Select Ginkgo, a distinctive upright selection prized for its deeply incised fan-shaped leaves and refined growth habit. This unique cultivar features smaller, thicker leaves than typical ginkgo trees, creating an elegant and highly ornamental appearance throughout the growing season.

Its strong upright form makes it an excellent specimen tree for residential landscapes, Japanese-inspired gardens, urban plantings, and collector gardens. In autumn, the foliage transforms into a brilliant golden-yellow display that provides unforgettable seasonal color. Hardy, adaptable, and remarkably resilient, Folkert’s Select offers the durability and longevity that have made ginkgo trees landscape favorites for generations.

These healthy plants are shipped as 1-year grafted specimens approximately 12 inches tall and are ready to establish in the landscape.
