Locust trees.

A mile and a half tall, with seventeen leaves at the very top. Supposed to make good fence posts; feel free to make all the posts you want.

[Osage Orange.](http://www.gpnc.org/osage.htm) The tree itself is inoffensive, but it drops those godawful seed pods that are the size of volleyballs. They make it a pain to mow the yard, and the tree is a pain to cut down because the wood is probably the hardest wood out there.
