Castanea sativa 'Anny's Summer Red' Castanea sativa 'Anny's Summer Red'

Arbore mic cu coroana rotundă, care crește mult mai încet și rămâne mai mic decât specia. În timpul înmuguririi, lăstarii sunt de un roșu purpuriu izbitor, la fel ca și frunzele tinere. Mai târziu, frunzele devin verde închis strălucitor. Toamna, frunzele devin galben-aurii până la galben-maroniu. Capacele de flori masculine sunt de culoare crem și sunt izbitoare. Cătănițele feminine sunt semnificativ mai scurte, verzi și discrete. Fructele (castane) sunt comestibile. Îi place solul aerisit cu humus.
