Aesculus californica. It can range into Oregon and also as far south as northern Baja California. Its a very tropical looking tree with a branching that reminds me of Plumeria. Palmate leaves,showy flowers. The only drawback is that is will drop leafs very early in the fall- if watered. If not watered they actually go fully dormant and bare by July.
