HELP INDEX NEXT UP PREVIOUS FEEDBACK ATG Horse Chestnut

HORSE CHESTNUT SEEDS Horse Chestnut Aesculus hippocastanum is an Eurasian species which is often grown as an ornamental tree because of its attractive shape and beautiful flowers which look like large white candles on its branches. The round, spiny fruits contain one or two large, shiny, red-brown seeds that English children like to use to play "conkers". The aim of the game is to break your opponent's conker which dangles on a string, by swinging your own tougher conker at it. [CH] {NA}
