Bach Flower White chestnut: the ally against mental rumination
Le Blanc chestnut is known by its scientific name, Aesculus hippocastanum. In French, this tree goes by many names, such as faux châtaignier, châtaignier de mer, marronnier commun or marronnier d'Inde. This last name is misleading, because the white chestnut tree is not native to India at all: it is thought to come from the Macedonian mountains.
Nowadays, you can easily find it in France, particularly in Mediterranean and oceanic regions. It is often planted in municipal parks, squares, gardens and school playgrounds. However, you're unlikely to come across it on your walks in the woods: it's not the kind of tree that grows spontaneously.
A beautiful tree with a majestic stature, the white chestnut can reach a height of around 25 metres when fully grown. Its white, four-petalled flowers usually bloom around May. As for its large, toothed leaves, they turn from a beautiful dark green to golden in autumn. This is also the time of year when the fruits, chestnuts, make their appearance. Inedible, they are enclosed in a shell covered in prickles. This envelope usually bursts open when the ripe chestnuts fall to the ground: the phenomenon is reminiscent of a mental process that shatters to make way for Serenity.
