Ginkgo fruit?
Gingko don't have fruit. They are gymnosperms.
The seeds have a fleshy covering called a sarcotesta. They don't "supposedly" stink, they have a very foul odor. If you ever smelled them, you would never forget the stench.

Most commerically available gingkos are cutting grown males. -- David E. Ross Iowa City has female Ginko trees around the University campus. When the fruit drop, it smells like drunk students puked all over the street. -Adam |
