Aesculus hippocastanum 'Baumannii' Standard

Origin: selected in France in 1822. Very similar to Aesculus hippocastanum, but generally smaller. The leaves are identical but the flowers are white, double, sterile and arranged in shorter and thicker panicles; the flowering period is also longer. It does not produce any fruit, or only a little, and so is suitable for town avenues. It has the same growing requirements as A. hippocastanum.
