Eastern Hophornbeam (Ironwood) in central Indiana

Nearly indestructible except for one thing: Morton rates it as not tolerant of salt, so anything within splash range of a salted road, drive, or cul-de-sac turnaround browns and thins while an identical tree 40 ft away looks perfect. It is also the most misidentified tree on any quote, because "ironwood" gets applied to both this and American hornbeam and the two routinely get billed as each other.

Medium tree · $250–$1,400 typical

What moves the price on this one

  • How much canopy is coming off, and how high the work is
  • Whether a bucket truck reaches it or a climber has to go up
  • Clearance work over a roof, a drive or a service line costs more than open-yard
  • Number of trees — a crew already set up prices the second tree lower
  • Debris volume and haul-off

Also searched as ironwood, American hophornbeam, hop hornbeam, leverwood (slug corrected from "ironwood-hophornbeam" — Ostrya virginiana).
