Hello again 

   

Just a plea to note that ‘native to
 Ontario ’ can be meaningless in a province as big
and diverse as Ontario . 
 

   

Consider, as Bohdan Kowalyk stated, that
it is only native to a very tiny bit of SW Ontario . 
Also consider that it has a larger
 USA range and that you have to be
very careful of what genetic sources (both geographic and diverse seedling vs
clonal) are available and how well they will be adapted to your local area.

While
not fully pertinent to the discussion, Ohio Buckeye, (Aesculus glabra) is now
