The Philadelphia Inquirer tells readers where to see ginkgo trees in autumn:
Start a drive in Center City and look for ginkgo trees, which line many streets.
“They are tough trees, resistant to poor soil and urban conditions, so you can find them all over many cities,” said Longwood Gardens’ Anisko. “Their leaves are a clean, beautiful, warm yellow color and they stay on for quite a long time. When they drop, though, they drop all at once, overnight. People are known to bet on which night they will all hit the ground.”
