The Red Buckeye (Aesculus pavia) is a stunning deciduous tree or shrub native to the eastern and central United States, known for its vibrant red flowers in spring and large, glossy brown nuts in fall. It can grow quite tall in some places but usually caps out around 15 feet. It has a broad, spreading crown, making it a majestic addition to any landscape. The showy red flowers of the Red Buckeye are a magnet for bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, helping to support the local ecosystem. The leaves of the Red Buckeye transform into a beautiful golden yellow in fall, adding a touch of autumn magic to your landscape.

The deep root system of the Red Buckeye helps to prevent soil erosion, making it a valuable choice for slopes and hillsides. The Red Buckeye is a popular choice for parks, gardens, and other landscapes due to its beautiful flowers and fall foliage. The wood of the Red Buckeye is used for various purposes, including furniture, flooring, and tool handles. However, due to its relatively small size, it’s not a major timber source.

Ordered 2. Came very well packed. .one was just beautiful and is growing. The other had shriveled leaves but green on arrival and still looks the same. .doesn't look dead but not looking alive either. Hoping it will show improvement soon. Happy with my other purchase . .a dogwood. Just perfect and growing. All in all happy with my order and will order again.
