How did the horse chestnut get that name
The term horse chestnut derives from the Latin name Aesculus hippocastanum with hippocampus meaning horse. The European tree’s use as food or medicine for horses influenced the naming. The tree arrived in Europe from Constantinople in the early 1500s and was later brought to the New World. American varieties differ and are often called buckeyes.
