What is the state tree of Ohio?

The state tree of Ohio is the Ohio Buckeye. This tree, known for its distinctive palmate leaves and its glossy, dark brown seeds, which resemble the eye of a buck, is native to Ohio and can be found in the state’s forests and woodlands. The Ohio Buckeye produces small yellow flowers in the spring, which later give way to the seeds, known as buckeyes, that are a common symbol of Ohio. The tree was designated as the state tree in 1953 and is often associated with the state’s athletic teams, particularly the Ohio State Buckeyes.
