Ohio Buckeye

So you've heard of the Ohio Buckeyes, but have you heard of the Ohio Buckeye tree?  It's scientifically called the Aesculus glabra. It grows 20-40 feet tall and can live to be about 125 years. The Ohio Buckeyes flowers are green and its fruit is light brown and round. In autumn, leaves turn yellow and orange. Some call it Stinking Buckeye because when the flowers are crushed they smell bad. It has poisonous seeds that animals avoid eating. The leaves are green during summer and spring
