Description:
The Prairie Torch Hybrid Buckeye is a unique, eye-catching tree that brings bold texture and seasonal interest to any landscape. Its large, deep green leaves create a lush, tropical feel through the summer, while upright clusters of warm yellow flowers bloom in late spring, adding a soft pop of colour. With a rounded form and sturdy branching, it makes a beautiful feature tree for yards that need something a little different from the usual maples and elms. As fall approaches, its foliage turns a warm golden hue before dropping.
Standout Feature:
Striking upright flower clusters and oversized leaves give this tree a distinctive, almost tropical look in northern landscapes.
