Ginko trees in the fall




Back at home in Washington my family has a ginko tree in the front yard and it is my mom's favorite! The leaves are really beautiful and the ginko species of tree has been around since prehistoric days. Anyways while walking to work I noticed that here in Burlingame there are quite a bit of ginko trees. So I thought I would upload some pictures of the pretty leaves and fruit that this tree is shedding right now. Back at home we have a "male" tree meaning that it doesn't give off any fruit. So here you go mom, now you can see what the ginko fruit looks like. It smells really bad! But the leaves are really beautiful right now!
