From Question and Answer Forums: What are others saying about this plant?
Ohio Buckeyes will be very hard to find. There is one in Spring Grove Cemetery and one at St.Pius school. Neither will have leaves at this time. However there are bottlebrush buckeyes around the courtyard in front of the gym at St. Pius that may look enough like an Ohio Buckeye.
