2023 GINKGO WATCH Thursday, October 19th- On the move!

The Ginkgo Grove undergoes a magical transformation each Fall as the leaves transition from green to gold. Here's what the Ginkgo Grove looks like today (Thursday, October 19th).

"Lime green" is the predominant color, but somewhere between 50-60% of the trees have at least a few yellow leaves. On many trees, there are a few branches with almost all yellow or lime-green/yellow leaves. 

This coming weekend (Oct. 20-22) is unlikely to be the "peak" weekend for golden leaves. 

The best time to see golden ginkgoes at Blandy is usually late October - early November, although there is some variation in timing from year to year.
