Make a bold statement in your landscape with the Mystic Ruby™ Buckeye. This exceptional, medium-sized ornamental tree is celebrated for its breathtaking floral display and superior cold hardiness. In mid to late spring, it bursts into bloom with striking pinkish-red flower panicles that rise elegantly above its dark green, palmately compound leaves, attracting hummingbirds, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators to your yard.
Unlike many other red-flowering buckeyes, the Mystic Ruby™ boasts phenomenal resistance to common ailments like late-season leaf scorch and leaf blotch, ensuring its lush foliage remains pristine throughout the summer. Forming a beautifully symmetrical, rounded-oval canopy, it provides excellent shade while remaining perfectly sized for smaller gardens and urban landscapes. In the fall, it produces the classic, shiny buckeye nuts that wildlife love. Low-maintenance and highly adaptable, this robust hybrid is the ultimate choice for a show-stopping, easy-care focal point.
