    Anyone know where I could get a gingko biloba sapling? Of if anyone has any seeds this autumn or where to get some, are they easy to germinate?

    plant from these in a 1L pot, 1 foot @ high €8. They may post it to you, winter may be best for that. (I have bought off them but not a ginkgo)

    Ginkgo did not like my garden at all, too exposed at the time.

    thank you both. Great ideas.

    was inspired by this view in Japan.

    They are a beautiful tree alright. Big though, are you a city gardener?

    What a very clean and tidy street - but what on earth does that u-turn sign mean?

    no u-turns.

    Yeah, I'm a city gardener. Will have to have a good think about where to put one. I used to grow chestnuts and they are hard to get rid of.

    I got a dozen or so treed in that Million Trees in a Day thing still in pots. I must get them into the ground this autumn/winter...
