    Plant Type: Deciduous Trees

    One of the first trees to leaf out in spring, Ohio Buckeye has a short trunk with low branching, creating an oval to rounded canopy. Very dense with branches bending down low to the ground and arching back up at the ends. The palmately compound leaves of this tree are unusual and attractive, especially in the autumn when the fall color is a range of yellows, oranges and reds. Greenish-yellow flowers are produced on large panicles in spring followed by large light brown fruit capsules. A good tree for parks, large areas and wild or natural settings.
