Red Buckeye
The Red Buckeye (Aesculus pavia) is a lovely deciduous shrub or small tree that is native to the southeastern United States. It is prized for its showy display of bright red tubular flowers that bloom in the spring, which are attractive to hummingbirds and butterflies. The shrub can grow up to 20 feet tall and has a spreading, rounded habit. The leaves are dark green and palmate, with five to seven leaflets that turn a yellowish-green color in the fall. The Red Buckeye is also valued for its ornamental fruit, which are large, spiny capsules that contain shiny brown nuts. This hardy plant is easy to grow and adapts well to a variety of soil types and growing conditions. It is an excellent choice for use as a specimen plant, in mass plantings, or as a hedge. With its stunning spring flowers, attractive foliage, and ornamental fruit, the Red Buckeye is a standout plant that adds beauty and interest to any landscape.
