Question by Lucy A: What to do for a maidenhair tree thats has some leaves turning brown?
I have a small Ginkgo biloba (maidenhair tree) that is in a large pot on my patio. It has been fine for years now until I transfered it to my house from my friend’s. A few weeks ago, some of the leaves have been turning brown. Is this normal? Should I leave them or take the brown ones off?
My friend had it in his backyard where theres only some sun. I now have it in the front of my house where the sun is the strongest during the day. Could it be that the sun has burnt the leaves?
Other than those few leaves, the tree does not seem to be in any distress.
