Siting This Tree

Early Glow Buckeye is a phenomenal specimen and boulevard tree due to its low mess and unique foliage that is seldom seen in urban areas. Early Glow Buckeye performs best in slightly acidic, moist, well-drained soil but can tolerate a variety of sites if given adequate water when establishing. The tree does develop a taproot which, once established, will allow it to tolerate dry sites and the occasional drought. It is also tolerant of alkaline soils, salt spray, and wetter sites.

Considerations

Early Glow Buckeye produces very few nuts, but they can be toxic to livestock and should avoid sites where they can graze on them.
