Dwarf Ginkgo in Sidewalk Container - Dublin Ireland - August 2025
There I was, minding my own business as a tourist walking around Dublin when I came across a large municipal sidewalk planter that looked different. It was tall and round and didn't have flowers in it. \ Instead, it held a dwarf ginkgo tree. Full, round-in-habit and leafy. See below for a couple photos: I have (now) three Spring Grove (dwarf) Ginkgos planted in the ground. A look at their hardiness rating and it shows they're hardy down to Zone 3 . The rule-of-thumb is that you can (likely) over-Winter a tree in a container if it is able to go a zone below your actual zone. We're in 6A. This is hardy down to Zone 3. It *might* work.
