Aesculus ×carnea 'Briotii' – Aesculus ×carnea 'Briotii'

View prices and availability
Crossing between A. hippocastanum and A. pavia. The dense crown casts a dark shade. A mature tree seldom reaches higher than 15 m and gets circa 15 m wide. 'Briotii' grows slower than the species. The slightly shiny, opposite leaves are more folded than those of A. x carnea and can reach 15 cm across. They appear early, remain long on the tree and have a yellow brown autumn colour. The midrib is tinted red at the origin. The blood-red flowers do not appear until the tree is 8 to 10 years old and are bigger than those of the A. x carnea. The fibrous root system consists of a main root which branches out well and goes deep into the ground. The ground must not be too dry. Intolerant to asphalt surfaces unless the base area is large enough.
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from November 2025.
