Lancaster Cemetery, 205 East Lemon Street, Lancaster PA (back of the cemetery) <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This tree, a male, is the co-champion ginkgo in Pennsylvania (the other co-champion is at Tyler Arboretum in Lima PA).   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u200bCo-champions are designated if (a) their measurement point total is less than 100 and within 3 of each other; or (b) their point total is more than 100 and within 3% of each other (this is the 3×3 Rule<\/em>).   As of 2019, total points were 396 for the Lancaster tree and 389 for the Tyler tree.  Thus, co-champions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In any event, the circumference of Lancaster’s tree measured 263 inches in 2010 and 281 inches in 2019 (pabigtrees.com<\/a>).  Its height was 88 feet and its spread was 108 feet in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tree was once struck by lightning, and also lost a large limb to high winds preceding Hurricane Sandy in 2012.   For the intriguing history of this and other Ginkgos in Lancaster Cemetery, refer to the entry on “The Six Ginkgos.”  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This amazing species is a \u201cliving fossil\u201d that goes back 270 million years (be- fore the first dinosaurs).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
