Red Horsechestnut

Aesculus x carnea 'Ruby' is a stunning deciduous hybrid tree known for its dense, rounded canopy and spectacular spring display. It features large, dark green palmate leaves that provide deep shade. In mid-spring, the tree is covered in upright panicles of vibrant ruby-red flowers that attract pollinators. This slow-to-moderate grower is highly tolerant of urban conditions, making it an excellent choice for street plantings or as a focal specimen. It thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers moist, well-drained soils.
