This plant should be a bigger player in midwestern and southern landscapes.

Aesculus parviflora var. serotina is a later blooming variant of Bottlebrush Buckeye, and it often has much larger (length) blooms.

Here, Bottlebrush Buckeye (Aesculus parviflora) has completed its bloom cycle and seed is just beginning to form. Aesculus parviflora var. serotina is moving into full bloom on most plants, and one selection named 'Rogers' is just beginning to bloom. This sequence of species and selections can provide more than a month of flowering of this beautiful range of plants.
