Oh, yeah, there are a bunch near Phipps. I always thought they smelled like dirty stinky feet! Phew!

There are several at the intersection of Beeler with Wilkins, in front of the yellow brick row houses. Very pretty to look at, but from the other side of the street! Anne

According to my Dad, ginkos were known as “pooberry trees” on University of Delaware campus. He didn’t mention anyone calling them stinkbomb trees.

There were a number of ginko trees that lined a street near my office when I worked on Capitol Hill in Washington. Walking down the sidewalk was like running the gauntlet. There is nothing worst than trying to look professional while smelling like you stepped in dog doo!
