St. Petersburg (photo Grigoriy)
Grigoriy writes: "This spring I was very surprised when I saw a Ginkgo tree in the botanical garden in
St. Petersburg, before it I think it's impossible in our region.
A guide in the park told me that it's from China and growing here from 1948.
This tree is about 12m tall and girth nearly 20 cm."
