Al,

That is a great Ginkgo you showed.

I'm a Ginkgo lover myself.

Here are a few pics of a tree I started from a 2 year graft in 1975.

Professional Idiot-you describe yourself well. Buy a Ginkgo and see for yourself.

See, this tree looks much more like the photos that everyone keeps throwing out of full-size Ginkgoes. Mainly because of the trunk width, I think.

Here'a picture I took this Summer of a Ginkgo at the Midwest show in Chicago.

It belonged to Susumo Nakamura who donated it to the Botanical Gardens. He grew it for many years. It has great chi-chi on the bark. I think it's a good representation and a great Ginkgo bonsai.

Again, an outstanding tree. This is no "candle-flame." How come I never saw any of these trees before?
