Ginkgo trees are considered living fossils that were once found growing worldwide. Fossil remains date back 270 million years. Humans have benefited from their profound medicinal qualities for centuries and designers and artists have utilized their beautiful form from B.C. to the present time. "It (Ginkgo) appeals to the historic soul: we see it as an emblem of changelessness, a heritage from worlds too remote for our human intelligence to grasp, a tree which has in its keeping the secrets of the immeasurable past." Sir Albert Seward (LIHL 1956)
