kentucky coffeetree

The Kentucky coffeetree is considered a rare tree species.

The Kentucky coffeetree is believed to be an example of evolutionary anachronism.

The Kentucky coffeetree sheds its leaves early during the fall and appears bare for up to 6 months.

Kentucky coffeetree is easy to grow from seed.

You pick up a crusty pod from the Kentucky coffeetree and taste the molasses-like jelly inside.

In the capital city, Frankfort, there is the Kentucky Coffeetree Cafe.

In addition to use as a food, the seeds of Kentucky coffeetree were used by Native Americans for ceremonial and recreational purposes.

The Kentucky coffeetree is typically found on "alluvial soils of river and flood plains and nearby terraces".

Because of the importance of Kentucky coffeetree to Native Americans, they undoubtedly contributed to its dispersal.

The Kentucky coffeetree is a moderately fast-growing tree, and male trees are often grown in parks and along city streets for ornamental purposes.

From 1976 to 1994 the Kentucky coffeetree was the state tree of Kentucky, after which the tulip poplar was returned to that designation.

Gymnocladus dioicus (Kentucky Coffeetree)

A Kentucky coffeetree was given to the residence as a gift from Governor Ernie Fletcher of Kentucky.

Some biologists have suggested that T. taxifolia is an evolutionary anachronism similar to Osage orange and Kentucky coffeetree which was dispersed by a now-extinct animal.

A Kentucky coffeetree found in the Will Rogers Park in Amarillo, Texas has been confirmed to be the largest of its kind in Texas.

It favors Acacia species, Kentucky Coffeetree (Gymnocladus dioicus), and Candle Bush (Senna alata).

Examples of these organisms include Blueberry plants, Hazel trees, Pando trees, the Kentucky coffeetree, Myricas, and the American sweetgum.

Legume trees like the locust trees (Gleditsia, Robinia) or the Kentucky coffeetree (Gymnocladus dioicus) can be used in permaculture food forests.

A Kentucky coffeetree, said to have been brought to the UK in 1812, stands in Mountsfield Park in the London Borough of Lewisham.

They include at least 10 types of oak, several types of maple and lesser known species, such as the Japanese cryptomeria, the Chinese pararsol tree and the Kentucky coffeetree.

Six species of oak, three species of ash, and basswood, cottonwood, pawpaw, Kentucky coffeetree and hackberry are among the tree species living within the boundaries of Silver Springs.

The Kentucky coffeetree, Gymnocladus dioicus, is a tree in the subfamily Caesalpinioideae of the pea family Fabaceae, native to the Midwest and Upper South of North America.

Similar to Kentucky coffeetree and Honey Locust, the seeds of T. taxifolia are extremely hard and require scarification to germinate, which may have been performed by the process of passing through an animal's digestive tract.

It has been proposed that giant North American fruits of plants such as the Osage-orange, Kentucky coffeetree and honey locust evolved in tandem with now-extinct American megafauna such as mammoths and other proboscideans, since there are no extant endemic herbivores able to ingest these fruits and disperse their seeds.
