The horse chestnut, also known as the conker tree, is a large, deciduous tree native to the Balkan Peninsula. It is sometimes called buckeye and should not be confused with sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa) or Spanish chestnut, which belong to different botanical families.
Horse Chestnut tree was introduced to the UK from Turkey in the 16th century. Its name originates from the similarity of the leaves and fruits to sweet chestnuts, together with the fact that the Turks would feed the seeds to their sick horses. Twigs and other raw parts of the tree, such as the leaf, can be toxic if ingested.
