Ohio Buckeye

We planted this Ohio Buckeye on 2008 August 30. It was purchased from Lakeshore Garden Centre on Boychuk/Highway 16.

It's foliage is fuller today, 2 weeks later.  It was hammered by hail on 2011 August 15, but I'm glad to see it's looking good this year.  I don't know why more Ohio Buckeyes aren't planted on the prairies.

We went to the Forestry Farm today and I like the Ohio Buckeyes they have there which are in bloom right now (last week would have been even better for the flowers).
