Take a good look, and you’ll understand why ginkgos are also known as maidenhair trees.

This photo, currently for sale at eBay, caught my eye this week. From the description:
The Hachiman Shinto Shrine and great ginkgo trees. Hachiman Shrine was first built in Yuigahama by Minamoto Yoriyoshi in 1063, but later it was moved to the present site at Mt. Kita by the Shogun Yoritomo. It became the guardian of Kamakura. ... (This shrine is designated as a natural monument by Kanagawa prefecture.)
A little googling tells me that the tree is in fact still standing:
Minamoto no Sanetomo, the third Kamakura shogun, was assassinated on February 13, 1219 by an archer hiding behind the great ginkgo tree that still stands beside the great staircase at the shrine.
(emphasis mine) although in this image the view is from the top of the steps rather than the bottom and the ginkgo tree is therefore on the right side of the photo.

chipple, featured here once before, sent me this photo from Denen Chofu, an area in the south of Tokyo. The town symbol is two ginkgo leaves, as illustrated on the sign.
Thanks, chipple!

This photograph is my first personal contribution to my own ginkgo blog. Until late December, I hadn’t owned a camera for several years and so was unable to contribute my own photos.
Snow remains only where it was once piled highest, and a few spring flowers have poked through brown patches of grass. The ginkgo trees are not idle, either, but it will be some time before we begin to see the action.
I’ll keep you posted.
