2024 GINKGO WATCH- GREEN!

The Ginkgo Grove undergoes a magical transformation each Fall as the leaves transition from green to gold. Here's what the Ginkgo Grove look like October 21st, 2024. 

The best time to see golden ginkgoes at Blandy is usually late October - early November.

This year, the Foundation of the State Arboretum will be celebrating Ginkgo Gold with special visitor services the weekends of October 26th and 27th and November 2nd and 3rd. Several snack and coffee trucks and extra bathrooms will welcome visitors near the parking entrance before you begin your 10 minute walk to the Grove. We will also host a ginkgo and State Arboretum of Virginia souvenir stand and a Sponsor A Ginkgo Tree booth across from the Gingko Grove. Learn more about how you can sponsor a ginkgo tree tagged with your name!
