See the entry for the tree here

Monkey-mind was correct - the tree is a California Horse-chestnut - also known as a California Buckeye.
Is this possible some sort of butterfly bush?
you are right the leaves do not look like Aesculus, the flowers do look like it though, the florescence isn´t similar either...
You can see the leaves in the entry for the tree here

do you have any photos of the leaves?
II'm not sure that's it - I do have a separate entry for the tree
the flowers look like an Aesculus, horse chestnut tree
