Ginkgo Tree


Height 51'
Circumference 3' 0"
Canopy Spread 27' & 31'
Total points 94




Here is a capture showing the veins of the leaf.


The leaves are whorled around the bud.

The Ginkgo tree lives for a long time in China. There are some trees over 3,000 years old.
It survives in many different regions of the world. The sole survivors of the atomic blast over Hiroshima Japan were several Ginkgo trees. The bark and leaves are fire resistant.

As the Ginkgo tree provides protection against fire, let us turn to Jesus to help us in the trouble life brings.

Psalm 46:1 
"God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble.”
