(Scarlet Buckeye) Perhaps the most handsome of the flowering Buckeyes, this is an unusual plant which has impressive, long (10 - 20 cm) panicles of scarlet flowers in late spring / early summer.

The vivid flower colour contrasts well against the dark green foliage.

A spectacular flowering Aesculus which is shrub-like when young eventually forming a very small rounded, branching tree.

Slow growing and not for instant gratification!
