Kentucky coffee tree is a bold shade tree with huge, fern-like compound leaves that give a surprisingly light, tropical look in summer. It is very tolerant of heat, pollution, and a wide range of soils, and it brings strong winter character with a coarse, architectural branching pattern. Female trees can produce large brown seed pods that hang on late into the season.
