Description : Aesculus hippocastanum is the botanical name for the horse chestnut . This large flowering tree produces attractive white blooms each spring, followed by spiny green seedpods. It is believed that the tree got its name from the customary practice of feeding the nuts to horses, which was done in an effort to reduce the occurrence of gas. Previously crushed and leached Chestnuts may also be boiled and fed to Cattle and sheep.
