ginko tree propogation


Question
About 5yrs ago I was given about 16 seeds from a ginko tree of a favorite aunt.  
Any chance they might still propogate?  Also, should any of them survive, at
what age and exactly how might I determine the sex of the trees?

Answer
Hi Rhonda,
Thanx for your question.  The website I've attached should be able to answer all your questions.  There are pictures and videos in the website that should be helpful also.

Unfortunately, seed viability is low.  Only a couple months at room temperature, 8 months with other protections.  Here's a link to that information.

I hope this helps.
