20-50 yearsGinkgo biloba 'Variegata' features leaves with random white or cream striped variegation. The variegation is unpredictable from year to year. Sometimes, the leaves can be completely white. Occasionally, they can also revert to being completely green and so should be removed. As with other gingkos, the leaves turn yellow in autumn. It grows to around 3 metres, so is smaller than many gingkos.
