China horse chestnuts Coventry

Do you have a favourite season, a particular time of the year that means something special to you? Perhaps it’s the very first signs of spring - the humble bowing heads of a snowdrop. Perhaps it is the unmistakable lingering scent of summer roses in the warm afternoon air. Perhaps it is the very first sense of a slight nip in the breeze as the sun sets on summer and rises on autumn. The autumn colours and textures with the crunch of leaves under foot are a favourite for many.

For many of us our favourite season is fuelled by particular childhood memories. For example, were you a child who perhaps loved to collect acorns, or conkers in the autumn. The smooth deep chestnut coloured conkers were a favourite for many and became the basis for all kinds of childhood games available to children of every social class and background. As a young child bending down excitedly to pick up another remarkably shiny horse chestnut seed known as the conker, we likely never thought too much about the tree from which it had had fallen. Horse chestnut trees can grow as tall as 40 metres and can live for as long as 300 years. The shiny beautiful brown conkers we love to collect first fall inside a spiky green case and the leaves are combined of between 5 and 7 pointed leaves joined together at a central point. Horse chestnut trees found their way to the United Kingdom from Turkey and became planted throughout the British parks, gardens and streets making them a common and much cherished part of the British landscape.
