Maidenhair tree GINKGO BILOBA Description A REAL LIVING FOSSIL WITH BEAUTIFULLY SHAPED LEAVES, IDEAL BONSAI STARTER OR EXCITING "FIRST PLANT" FOR KIDS. Ginkgo biloba is an unusual conifer, and a very ancient plant, you almost grow your own dinosaur if you have one. This is one of the species which survived the impact of the atomic bomb, dropped to Hiroshima in 1945 - specimens still standing in less than 2km from the epicenter. The fan-shaped leaves - composed of two lobes (biloba) that form a split in the middle of the leaf - and branching pattern (composed by long and very short branches) give a very distinct look to the plant. It can grow to large tree but can be grown in pot on the patio, or as a bonsai.

Packaging and Postage

 

When sending plants, it is extremely important to pack them as securely as possible, therefore we don't use stuffing. Instead we have developed a unique packaging method which makes plant movement virtually impossible in the parcel. Each pot is wrapped, therefore the compost is securely locked during transit and the roots won't be disturbed. Your item will arrive in perfect condition to your door.

 

In almost all circumstances, we use royal mail 24h or 48h service to send your parcel with the delivery aim of 1-2 days in the UK (please note that this is not a guaranteed next day service); or royal mail International Tracked and Signed to overseas. You have the option for signed for and guaranteed next day delivery. Royal Mail has length limitations for small parcels, it cannot exceed 60cm. Sometimes, we may use a fully tracked service which requires a signature upon delivery. Please expect some delay around Bank Holidays.

 

We combine postage whenever possible. If you order more than one item, please always ask for an invoice if ebay does not automatically calculate the combined postage.

 

If you have any questions or you find anything not as expected about your received order, please do not hesitate to contact us and we will do our utmost to help.

 

It is important to us to care about the environment, so our plants are grown in reusable plastic pots and we pack our plants in recyclable cardboard boxes.
