Aesculus hippocastanum 'Baumannii'
Aesculus hippocastanum 'Baumannii' is a sterile variety of horse chestnut, renowned for its spectacular double white flowers and lack of fruit, making it ideal for urban and pedestrian areas. Its broad, rounded crown provides dense shade, while its glossy green foliage provides an imposing and elegant presence. Highly resistant to atmospheric pollution, it adapts well to deep, cool soils. Its late and prolonged flowering period is a real visual highlight in spring, making it a popular choice for large public spaces or formal gardens.
