Aesculus x neglecta 'Erythroblastos'

Sunrise Horsechestnut

Sunrise Horsechestnut is an unusual native ornamental tree which has several seasons of interest.  In early spring the new leaves emerge in striking shades of shrimp pink, looking like little pink parasols.  The foliage matures to light green, topped in late spring by spikes of soft yellow flowers.  In the fall, Aesculus x neglecta 'Erythroblastos' produces the classic shiny brown chestnuts.  Sunshine Horsechestnut is a cross between A. flava and A. sylvatica, introduced by the well known German nursery Spath Baumschulen.
