The maple goes outside right?
Can I see the ginkgo too?
You have your hands full then for now.
They will grow well this time of year. Fatten them up.

Trident is outside all day. Illinois is in a cold as hell spring so it sleeps with me at night. Still waiting on my ginkgo and cherry to arrive.

Ebay pics attached.

I'm in Illinois too. Ginkgo will be fine outdoors all year. For winter if ginkgo is on plastic pot or mica pot, just bury pot to rim in a spot with winter shade, then forget about it until spring. Once buds turn green in spring, dig up and move back to full sun. If in ceramic bonsai pot, an unheated garage or porch, should work. It needs the cold rest.

What kind of cherry? Tropical bush cherry, Eugenia? Or winter hardy flowering cherry?

Its a Dwarf Barbados Cherry. Wigert stock.... Kind of a late night impulse buy, but I think it will be a cool little tree!
