General description
- Origin
- This rare variegated Aesculus was found by William Wisselink as a chance seedling near the Dutch village of Aalten. It is very unusual and has exceptional, white variegated foliage with lime-green veins. It is grown to best effect against a dark woodland background and is suitable to larger gardens and woodland areas.
