Aesculus pavia (Red Buckeye)
Habit
Large shrub or small tree that typically grows 10-20 feet tall. Perfect for massing or grouping in a landscape or naturalized setting. Red Buckeye does well as an understory plant.
Color
Absolutely beautiful red panicle flowers in spring. A grove of Red Buckeye is an amazing sight! Flowers are borne on 4-8” long inflorescences.
Culture
Red Buckeye prefers moist, well drained soil in full sun. Will tolerate shade but may become a bit leggy and taller. Very adaptable once established.
