Aesculus carnea 'Briotii' (Red Horse Chestnut) -10L pot

Aesculus ‘Briottii’, commonly known as the Red Horse Chestnut, is a striking ornamental tree prized for its decorative flowers and impressive presence in landscapes. It is a hybrid between Aesculus hippocastanum (the common horse chestnut) and Aesculus pavia (the red buckeye), resulting in a tree that typically grows 10–15 meters tall with a broad, rounded crown. Its most notable feature is its dense clusters of deep pink to red flowers that bloom in late spring, attracting pollinators such as bees and butterflies. The tree produces large, glossy, palmately compound leaves that provide lush summer shade and turn yellow in autumn. Aesculus ‘Briottii’ is valued for its resilience in urban environments, tolerating a range of soils and conditions, making it a popular choice for parks, avenues, and large gardens.
