About this product

Ginkgo biloba Princeton Sentry, or Maidenhair Tree, was raised by the famous but now sadly out-of-business Princeton Nursery in New Jersey.

In our opinion, this is the best of the upright forms but also the most difficult to produce, hence its price tag over seedling Ginkgo!

A great maintenance-free tree option for urban environments, the only limitation of this male clone is its availability.

It is very similar to another Princeton introduction, Ginkgo biloba Magyar.

Mature height: 12-17m
