Fruits are roundish with spikes, and are green when young.
Fruits can be messy.

These come from the seed Pod. The chips are not seeds. The seeds (elongated) are on the right side.

The tree is very attractive even in midwinter, as the fruits hang like Christmas decorations

The trunk is distinctive with deeply fissured bark
by philomel Jan 25, 2005 12:38 PM
A close up clearly shows the beautifully patterned and fissured bark

By midwinter the fruits have turned from green to brown, giving beautiful silhouettes against the sky

Don't pay attention to the Ginkgo biloba seeds that you can also see in this picture next to the liquidambar little seedlings.
