California Buckeye Conkers
Aesculus californica
Previous Plant    Back to Thumbnails    Next Plant










Partially eaten conker.


























The first plant part to grow out of the seed is the radicle. It grows down into the ground and will become the root of the new plant.














I thought these radicles looked like "fingers" coming out of the ground!










I know that squirrels eat these, but I'm pretty sure that deer get in on eating them also.
