Aesculus indica — Indian Horse Chestnut

The third most frequent horse chestnut, introduced from the Himalayas in the mid-19th century.

The glossy leaves typically have seven leaflets on rather reddish stalks. Buds are not sticky. The flowers are similar to those of the common Horse Chestnut, but open rather later.
