Does anyone have a source for this tree in the US? I can only find it overseas...

Always looking for the odd ones......

how about Ginkgo Biloba 'sunstream' another variegated form?

Arrowhead Alpines (whose catalog alone is worth looking into)

Gee Farms has 'Sunstream'. Between Greer Gardens and Gee Farms there are quite a few of the harder to find varieties.

Unfortunately I don't think Gee Farms makes all of its stock available for shipping. The place is definitely worth a days pilgrimage.

Arrowhead Alpines might actually be closer for the original poster, I know it is for both you and I.

I'm hoping to get out there this weekend. (it will be my first time going there, though I love their catalog).

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that dybbuk already has a 'Sunstream' in his collection, if not, hats off to you two for the suggestion. I tried some Internet searches and no luck, sorry.

I will be making my pilgrimage to Gees this August. Should I kneel or lay prostrate after each step along the way?

Yeah,

I've got 'sunstream' and 'summer rainbow', but thanks for the recommendations. i found some other goodies. I'm also looking for 'fabulous underwear' and 'finger', FYI.

When going to Gees take a trailer. Personally I genuflect at the Enkianthus and the conifers. I save prostrating for the Chamaecyparis.

Hi all, and especially dybbuk. Finally got my variegated Ginkgo in... I'm so excited. Got it from Dave's Nursery, and he was great to deal with... very informative, and excellent service. Soon as my home computer is back up and running, I'll post a photo.

Love the ginkgos myself, and really like the variegates. Have to check out this Gees...
