			<description>I am pleased to read of your (mostly) appreciation of the species.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My parents-in-law's ginkgo drops its leaves all at once too.  I think this is usual for the species.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dona, have you considered preparing any of the recipes mentioned in the post?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gordon, would you mind sharing a photo + description of your ginkgos for our Tree Walk series?</description>

			<description>We have a mature female in our yard. I have a love - hate relationship with it because, while I think it is beautiful, I cannot stand the smell of the rotten fruit in the fall. Our neighbors, whose yards are under some of the branches, dislike it for that reason. One even offered to pay half to cut it down!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Still, we'll keep the tree and try to pick up the fruit as it falls, so it doesn't smell too bad in the autumn. Cannot do much about the neighbors' reactions though.&lt;br /&gt;

			<description>We just moved from SD to Harlan, IA, Our yard&lt;br /&gt;
has 4 mature ginkgo trees, 40+ yrs old. They are&lt;br /&gt;
just beautiful magistic trees. One is a female and&lt;br /&gt;
bears fruit. My neighbors say all the trees drop their leaves at the same time and usually in one day.</description>
