Talk:Aesculus glabra

Farther East
Clearly it is farther east then depicted. I live in Monongalia County in WV and I have one in my backyard that I didn't plant. Monongalia county is not represented on the map. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 153.31.113.20 (talk) 16:21, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

Fruits

Here is a link to a good fruit shot if somebody wants to use it.

At the least, citations are needed for the poisonous qualities of the Buckeye. Preliminary research indicates that it's species effects are exactly opposite of those described in the article, with the fruit being a danger to livestock (and perhaps more importantly to humans!) but digestible by some rodents.

I do not know what the article was like in April of 2007, but the reference given for Native Americans making a "nutritional meal" from buckeye nuts was non-supportive. I will remove the statement and replace it with a supported statement of Buckeyes being poisonous. Fartherred (talk) 13:40, 26 June 2014 (UTC)

do you agree?

Popularity of the candy
"[chocolate peanut butter buckeyes] are a popular treat in Ohio, especially during the Christmas and college football seasons.[citation needed]"

I really don't think a citation should be needed here; the statement is too obvious/trivial to need a citation. The only reason it even belongs in the article, is because some readers might not be from Ohio or familiar with the local culture. --User:Jonadab~enwiki


 * An encyclopedia is written by those in-the-know for the benefit of those seeking knowledge. While it is very much true that the candy is popular and that it's especially eaten around Christmas and college football season, it is not self-evidently obvious to the vast majority of our readers. Why would anyone from Timbuktu reading this article think "well of course, it's a Christmas thing"? I used to live in the 'Shoe, and I've no idea why it's a Christmas thing.
