This new female cultivar originates from Belgium. A tree was bought in Clod in 1999 as Ginkgo biloba (later to be identified and named as Ginkgo biloba var. epiphylla). The original specimen had three tree trunks, which have subsequently produced a number of ‘Chi Chi’s’. The tree first produced seed in 2011 and in 2019 it produced the seed for which it has been named. The originator of this cultivar is Marc Wathelet who propagated a budded, elongated fruiting spur of Ginkgo biloba var. epiphylla. in 2017,the resulting plant he named ‘Ariel Ohatsuki’ after his daughter.
