Bottlebrush buckeye is a shrub that can be up to 12' high. Flower spikes are 10-30" long and visually very striking. Individual flowers are tubular, several inches long, with stamens that protrude to double the length of the corolla. Native to Alabama and Georgia; introduced to Illinois. Foliage and fruit very similar to the native Ohio buckeye (A. glabra), but the flowers are quite distinct. Both the nuts and leaves are highly poisonous.
