Origin: China

Maintenance: Gingko trees can tolerate strong drought, wind and even air pollution. They prefer moist soil, and do well in both partial shade or full sun.

Does it Bear Fruit: The Gingko tree produces biloba fruit from summer to autumn. However, if the smell when opened isn’t enough to turn you off, don’t eat it raw! Gingko fruit requires cooking and moderated consumption..

"Mornington Green is more than just a lovely place to walk around and enjoy the stunning, picturesque surroundings. Walking to the trees of your loved one is a positive experience and something we look forward to every time. It’s nothing at all like that of visiting a cemetery. There is so much joy in watching not only our trees grow, but the entire grounds evolving. It feels like a positive and personal experience visiting our trees on special occasions. We bring a picnic rug, play games on the grounds, feed the ducks and have a coffee. My granddaughter loves to water ‘Uncle Dan’s Tree’ which creates such a positive connection and helps his memory live on. It truly feels like a family occasion and we always look forward to coming. There is a sense of peace knowing that our entire family are together in those moments. The team at MG have always been helpful, accommodating, and very caring. They feel like a part of our extended family and always welcome us and have a chat when we visit." - Katherine Hayler⁠
