Tips For Trimming Ginkgo Tree?

#1 · 25th March 2024, 10:55 am

Hello everyone, is that time of the year for me!

I would like to know if you have any tips on how to prune and trim a ginkgo tree. I read somewhere in the past that no pruning is generally required.

I’ve attached a few photographs, I would like to remove everything that is within the red rectangles, any issues with it? Unfortunately I don’t know the variety of this Ginkgo tree.

Thank you in advance and happy gardening everyone!
