Kentucky Coffee Tree belongs to a small genus of winter hardy, tall deciduous trees with large feathered leaves and terminal inflorescences followed by ornamental, large, flat seed capsules containing few, yet very large seeds. It is native of the midwestern North America. Easily cultivated in any rich, well drained soil in a sunny spot. Give younger plants some extra winter protection (e.g. a thick mulch layer).
Prior to sowing scarify seed (e.g. carefully scratch the seed coat with fine sandpaper) and soak them in luke warm water for some 48h. Sow in any well drained, sandy soil throughout the year. Keep pots in full sun and in a protected spot outside during winter. If sowed from summer to autumn seeds will germinate in spring the following year.
