We visited Wuhan City's most famous ancient tree (a ***Ginkgo biloba***) and interviewed experts in the maintenance of ancient and famous trees from the Garden and Forestry Administration. We sought to understand the current resources of ancient and famous trees in Wuhan and consulted them about techniques related to the maintenance and rejuvenation of ancient trees.

In this field survey, we investigated a total of 41 ancient and famous trees, representing 14 species from 12 families. Among them, there were 8 ***Ginkgo biloba*** from the ***Ginkgoaceae*** family, accounting for 19.51% of the total, and 13 ***Celtis julianae*** from the ***Ulmaceae*** family, accounting for 31.71%. Among these 14 species, 10 are indigenous species, accounting for 87.80% of the total number, such as the ***Sinojackia xylocarpa***, ***Ginkgo biloba***, and ***Celtis julianae***. Some are long-standing introduced species, such as the ***Pinus thunbergii*** introduced from the south temperate zone of Asia, the ***Platanus orientalis*** introduced from Europe, and the ***Camphora bodinieri*** introduced from the subtropics.
