Not quite alliteration with the “g” but this is one majestic tree in Highland Park, Pittsburgh PA.
Ginkgo has several spellings and there are male and female trees. The golden fan leaves make it one of the prettiest trees in autumn.

Lovely photographs,, Ruth. Ginko’s are among my faves. Beautiful.
Thanks for your visit and nice comment, Jamie. This one was majestic
These have been my favourite trees since I was a little girl, thanks Ruth!
They are regal in their stance. Thanks, Gilly.
This is one HUGE tree! Very impressive. My undergrad college campus was covered in ginkgo trees; I liked they way they looked, but wasn’t a fan of their smell. Hopefully just one is less “odiferous” than a whole gaggle of them. 🙂
I never knew there are male and female ginkgos
among my favourite trees…. thanks for sharing.
Thanks for writing today Kris.
Wait a minute – isn’t that beautiful tree (and it is beautiful) the same tree that drops what we used to call barf berries?
The colors of autumn are lovely. And this tree is beautiful.
Thank you
