Why Plant Magyar Maidenhair Tree?
If trees had a hall of fame, this one’s in it, and probably giving a speech with calm confidence. The Magyar Maidenhair Tree (a ginkgo) is famous for its fan-shaped leaves and its remarkable durability, but what you’ll love day-to-day is the way it looks: tidy, upright, and quietly elegant through spring and summer, then absolutely show-stealing in fall when the foliage turns brilliant gold. It’s the kind of fall color that makes people pull out phones, suddenly everyone’s a photographer.
Ginkgos bring a refined, almost architectural presence to a yard without feeling stiff. They’re also famously long-lived, which makes planting one feel meaningful, like you’re adding a landmark, not just a tree.
How to use Magyar Maidenhair Tree in the landscape?
Use it as a focal shade tree in an open lawn where its upright form can be appreciated from a distance and its golden fall color can light up the whole yard. It’s also an excellent choice for driveways and streetscapes, where a tidy canopy and strong structure help keep the look clean and intentional. In larger beds, pair it with dark evergreens and simple, mounded shrubs so the fan-shaped leaves stand out as a unique texture, then let the gold fall color become the seasonal highlight. Give it space away from tight corners so the crown can develop naturally and the silhouette stays balanced.

Shipping Delays:
From time to time, Bower & Branch Growers may determine to delay order shipment based on various factors for plant health.

Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.
How Does Sizing Work?
The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)
Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.
All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
