Ohio Buckeye

Honeybees may visit the yellowish-green flowers but the nectar is toxic to them, potentially causing brood mortality if overforaged; pollen toxicity is undetermined but likely similar. Peak bloom aligns with early spring from April to May in its range. As a deciduous tree reaching 20-40 feet, it offers overhead cover for ground-nesting bees, though fallen nuts are poisonous to livestock and should be cleared.
