Best Answer

It is a deciduous tree that grows 30 to 50 feet in height. The leaves are hand shaped, with a group of five leaflets growing from a central bud. Fall foliage color is orange to red. The buckeye's botanical name is Aesculus, derived from from "Aesculapius," the Greek god of medicine. The Ohio buckeye was named Aeschylus glabra in 1809 by German botanist Carl Ludwig Willdenow. American Indians named the tree buckeye because the glossy, dark brown seeds with the lighter circular area look like the eye of a male deer.
