My friend Patti fell in love with the ginkho trees she saw in San Marino, Ca.
She has double and triple stemmed Plumeria cuttings, white with yellow centers.
I have many succulents as well as other plants I might be willing to give up to get her a tree.
She has been a great friend and I'd love to suprise her. She has 3/4 acre property in So. Ca with large yard and garden.
If anyone has some...

when is the best time to transplant? Some trees are planted in their dormant season,
is it okay for Ginkho? That would be wonderful.I know she has huge elm trees of some sort in pots from babies of a large tree that grew up from it's roots. I think she would be able to grow this with a few instructions. Would it be possible to have 2 seedlings in case something gos wrong with one? Should I close this as done?
Ok with me if Ok with you.

A friendly word of warning: I've heard that female ginko grees bloom, and the fruit's scent is anything but pleasant! You might want to try and get a male or make sure a female tree is planted in a more isolated place in the garden. :) There's some good information on this website: http://www.boldweb.com/greenweb/2977.htm.
It will take years for any fruiting goes on with these trees I have anyways. you do have to have a male and female for them to fruit, and I have no idea which ones I have.

Yes, it takes about twenty years for the tree to produce fruit. I've never smelled it, but I was told in college that another local university didn't plant only male trees and had quite a stinky problem every year. :) Just something to be aware of. (And it seems the link I posted didn't work, but if you search on google, of course you can find all the information you need on anything!)
