Austria
During the winter, when temperatures hovered around 0 degrees Celsius, three trees thrived splendidly in the Pörtschach community in Austria. The Ginkgo, Diospyros kaki, and Celtis, standing at 1.8 meters tall, a testament to strength and resilience of the hibakujumoku.
On October 29th, our devoted partner Mr. Michael Kosch formally offered a Ginkgo, a Diospyros kaki, and a Celtis to the Poertschach am Woerthersee, Carinthia. The saplings are planted in a "protected landscape area." A harmonious celebration with Mayor Silvia Häusl-Benz, and Children's Mayor Miriam Madrutter and other citizens marked the event.
Ginkgo and persimmon seeds have germinated and seem to be adapting to their new Austrian home.
We're delighted to share that the Gingko tree at the Australian National University (ANU) is thriving, even in the face of Australia's warmest winter in years. ANU's dedicated gardeners have assured us that the tree remains in excellent health. As spring unfolds, the tree continues to stand tall, a symbol of resilience.
