Characteristics
Gymnocladus dioicus (L.) K. Koch
Kentucky coffee tree
Cultivated and perhaps native as well. Some believe that this tree may, at least in part, have been brought into New York by Native Americans. It also appears to be sparsely naturalizing from cultivation. Rich bottomlands, thickets, and edges of forests.
