Kentucky Coffeetree in central Indiana

The number one coffeetree call in central Indiana comes in May, when the neighbors' maples are fully leafed out and this thing is still bare sticks — it is one of the last trees to leaf out and one of the first to drop, so healthy specimens get diagnosed as dead every spring. The second call is the pods, which is why the male cultivars exist.

Large tree · $400–$1,900 typical

What moves the price on this one

  • Height — a 20-footer is a few hundred, an 80-foot oak over a roof is four figures
  • Access — can a truck and chipper get to it, or is everything carried by hand
  • What's underneath — a clear yard versus a roof, a fence, a pool or a power drop
  • Condition — dead and brittle costs more than live, because it can't be climbed
  • Species and wood density — hickory and walnut rig slower than pine
