As remarkable as it may seem, according to the Forest Service Silvics Manual, “no information is available as to the age at which yellow buckeye trees begin bearing seeds, the number of seeds produced by individual trees, the conditions favoring seed production, or the frequency of seed years.” We do know that once an old-growth forest containing buckeyes is clear-cut, no buckeyes will return for the first fifteen years. In forty years, there will be only buckeye saplings.
