毘沙門の大銀杏

Now this tree is wandering between life and death. The reason for giving 5 stars is because the number of stars of this tree is "for efforts to survive in the past" and "to pray for the resumption of growth in the future". Also, I want you to know how this can't be done, so I want you to use it as a stone from another mountain. Many people in Hachinohe know why this ginkgo tree is here. Because it was transplanted. Why did we have to transplant such a gynandromorphic old tree with an unusual tree shape? Apparently, it goes back to the stage of city planning long ago. I heard that this big ginkgo stood in this lowland where there were no tall trees when passing through the city planning street, so I heard that it was addressed to the intersection on the city planning road as a landmark. is there. It is not enough to cut down such an old ginkgo tree, which is a rare ginkgo tree that is a combination of male and female trees. If you choose it as an intersection, you can use a rotary that surrounds this tree like in front of the city hall, but the plan that was made without such consideration proceeded steadily, and when it was time to build a road, logging was done. It's ridiculous that I got it even if it was a transplant. The geology of this area is close to a wetland and is actually unsuitable for ginkgo trees. As a guardian of Bishamon-do, this giant tree survived and became a large tree while multiple individuals united, and it did not grow freely in the right place. The result was a difficult transplant. Since transplantation is not possible unless the roots are cut considerably and rooted, the trunks and branches must be trimmed accordingly. Careful work was done and it seemed like it was successfully transplanted ... The ginkgo tree itself has a strong vitality, and even from a log that has been cut down and has no roots, the ginkgo tree itself grows new branches for many years, so it is said that a few years after transplanting, a few branches and leaves grew. I can't say that it has taken root. And even after more than a decade, foliage growth does not seem to have improved enough to be confident that it has really taken root. I pray that I will start growing again and will be able to attach ginkgo again.
