Aesculus parviflora

Bottlebrush Buckeye

Plant Type: Shrub

A handsome and very natural looking shrub noted as one of the best flowering shrubs for shade. This multi-stemmed beauty exhibits large compound green leaves and white 8"-12" tall bottlebrush flowers in summer. A hub for butterflies, pollinators, and hummingbirds. Foliage turns a pleasing bright yellow in autumn again lighting up that shady corner. Adapts to sun with proper moisture and rich soil. Effective in in mass plantings, woodland understory, lawn specimen, or shrub borders.
