The Gingko as a Street Tree. 



An example of the remarkable hardihood of this tree under adverse city con- 

 ditions. Although the tree is growing in an opening in the pavement less than 

 two feet in diameter, and with a trunk which has been more than half girdled 

 by injury for many years the tree appears in perfect health. Probably no other 

 tree except the Aiianthus would have survived under similar conditions.
