Cambridge Tree Locator: G-I
Links in the third column are to maps displaying tree locations. Links in brackets are to Multimap ; normal links are to specific Cambridge tree maps, the second column containing the abbreviation(s) used for the tree on the map.
| Genista aetnensis (Mount Etna Broom) | Br | A clump on Riverside just the other side of Elizabeth Way bridge from Midsummer Common |
| Ginkgo biloba (Maidenhair Tree) | Gi | A notably pollution-tolerant species suspiciously popular as a street tree in Cambridge: there is one in front of Lloyds Bank where Hobson Street joins St Andrews Street in the City Centre; there are two towards the NE corner of Christ's Pieces and several along Mill Road Broadway (beyond the railway bridge) [map] |
| Gleditsia triacanthos (Honey Locust) | The spined type tree is uncommon, although there appears to be a small type tree behind the Chemistry Department in Union Road [map]; there are four large spineless (f.inermis) trees on the W side of Ridley Hall Road [map]; a few gardens have the yellow ‘Sunburst’ form - there is one on the S side of Thornton Road in Girton [map] | |
| Hippophae rhamnoides (Sea Buckthorn) | Struggles in Cambridge to become a tree, unlike on the cliffs at Cromer: there is one 200m up Hurst Park Avenue on the W side [map], and another on Gazelle Way in Cherry Hinton near the N junction with Eland Way [map] | |
| Ilex x altaclarensis (Highclere Holly) | HH | There are three trees of unknown cultivar on the N bank of the Cam across from Jesus Green |
| Ilex aquifolium (Common Holly) | H VH | Common everywhere, though usually bushy: there is a medium-sized tree at the back of St Clement's beside Portugal Place in the City Centre; Alexandra Gardens also has some small variegated f.argenteomarginata trees |
