 Xanthoceras (Greek, xanthos, yellow, and keras, horn, alluding to the yellow horn-like processes of the disk). Sapindaceae. Ornamental shrub planted for its showy racemes of white flowers and also for the handsome pinnate foliage.
@@ Line 25: / Line 35: @@
 A very handsome shrub or sometimes a small tree with rather finely pinnate dark green and glossy foliage which is not attacked by insects and retains its bright color until frost sets in, and with showy white flowers appearing in upright profusely produced racemes with the leaves on last year's branches. The large greenish fruits are similar to those of the buckeye. It is hardy as far north as Massachusetts and is well suited for solitary planting on the lawn. Xanthoceras is also sometimes used for forcing. It is not very particular as to soil. A porous loamy soil and a sunny position seem to suit it best. Propagation is by seeds, stratified and sown in spring, and by root-cuttings, which succeed best with moderate bottom-heat.
