Reply to comment by TILTNSTACK in Ginkgo Biloba, looks like it's made of gold this time of the year by MegaPollux

Yeah, I have two of them in my yard. They have fan-like leaves. Unfortunately mine are past the golden leaf stage!

Fun fact: the tree is either male or female, unlike most trees which have both 'parts.' The female trees have putrid smelling fruits.

I'll bet it looks incredible with the sun behind it! The neighbors across my back yard had a pair of maples that turned a similar color and the sun coming through the leaves was amazing.

Gosh, yes. We had a few in my old neighborhood.

My dog decided one day that they made great treats, and gorged on them. She was sick for the next 3 days, throwing up all over the place.
