'''''Aesculus × carnea''''' is a hybrid between the [[Red Buckeye]] (''A. pavia'') and the Common [[Aesculus hippocastanum|Horse-chestnut]] (''A. hippocastanum''). The origin of the tree is not known, but it is probably a chance garden hybrid, appearing in [[Germany]] before 1820. The hybrid is a medium-size tree to 20-25 m tall, intermediate between the parent species in most respects, but inheriting the red flower color from ''A. pavia''. It is a popular tree in large gardens and parks, most commonly the selected cultivar 'Briotii' (named in 1858 to honor Pierre Louis Briot, the nurseryman at Trianon-Versailles near Paris, France), which has 10-inch tall, deep rosy flowers and matures as a smaller tree. Other cultivars are 'O'Neil',which produce larger (10-12 inch), brighter red flowers, '[[Fort McNair]]' (named from where is was selected), which has dark pink flowers with yellow throats and resists leaf scorch and leaf blotch, and 'Plantierensis', which has intense rose pink flowers with yellow throats and does not set fruit, which makes it less messy.<ref>{{cite book |

Aesculus × carnea, or red horse-chestnut,[1] is a medium-sized tree, an artificial hybrid between A. pavia (red buckeye) and A. hippocastanum (horse-chestnut). Its origin uncertain, probably appearing in Germany before 1820. It is a popular tree in large gardens and parks; and is even present in Hyde Park, London.[2]
Aesculus × carnea's features are typically intermediate between the parent species, but it inherits the red flower color from A. pavia. Its showy flowers are borne in plumes on branch ends, blooming in spring and producing leathery fruit capsules in fall. It grows up to 40 feet (12 m) tall and 30 feet (9 m) wide, with a round head that casts dense shade when mature. Its leaves are dark green, palmately compound, and deciduous, each leaf divided into five large, toothed leaflets.[3]
Cultivars
[edit]- 'Briotii' (named in 1858 to honor Pierre Louis Briot (1804–1888), the chief horticulturist of the State gardens at Trianon-Versailles near Paris, France) This is the most commonly seen cultivar which has 10-inch tall, deep rosy flowers and matures as a smaller tree.[4]
- 'O'Neil', which produce larger (10–12 inch) panicles with brighter red flowers.
- 'Fort McNair' (named from where it was selected) it has dark pink flowers with yellow throats and resists leaf scorch and leaf blotch.
- 'Pendula' with arching branches.[5][failed verification]
- 'Plantierensis' which has intense rose pink flowers with yellow throats and does not set fruit, which makes it less messy.[6]
