There's a wonderful 19th-century "street" here in St. Mary's City
lined with ginkgos of both sexes. It's actually the long-gone
driveway for an old plantation house, since moved. Presumably when
they planted them before the civil war, it wasn't easy to determine
sexes. As I recall, roughly half are female.
