View prices and availability
Is usually grown as a half-stem tree, top-grafted on a rootstock. Depending on the height of the graft union it can reach 2 - 2.5 m. Slow growing. Eventually it gets a sturdy and compact globular shape. The trunk is smooth and dark grey. The thick twigs bear non-sticky, smooth buds. The decorative, bluish-green leaf has five leaflets. The underside is thickly haired and has a lighter colour. The leaf reaches 15 cm across and is palmatifid-compound with 5 lanceolate-elliptical leaflets. These have long stalks. At the end of May the first, short flower panicles appear. The inflorescence is rich and the colour is dark red to salmon coloured. The end of each flower is yellow to salmon pink. After flowering it gives rather small smooth fruits, but they rarely appear. The tree thrives best in slightly moist soil. It is susceptible to salt (for icy roads). Aesculus mutabilis 'Induta' is a compact spherical shape usually grafted on a stem. This produces a tree that is ideal for small gardens.
