Maidenhair Tree ‘Princeton Sentry’
FamilyGinkgoaceae
Ginkgo biloba ‘Princeton Sentry’ is an ornamental tree with a very narrow and columnar habit, perfect for visually structuring pathways, small gardens, or urban areas where space is limited. Like all ginkgos, it is commonly known as the maidenhair tree due to its spectacular golden-yellow autumn foliage, which brightens the landscape in the fall. Its bright green foliage in season develops a slender and vertical silhouette, ideal for adding height without encroaching on width. Very hardy, this selected male variety does not produce malodorous fruit. It tolerates a wide variety of well-drained soils and thrives without particular requirements in full sun or partial shade. Ginkgo ‘Princeton Sentry’ is an elegant and durable solution for restricted spaces seeking a tree with unique, colorful, and easy-to-maintain foliage.
