Description
The Honey Locust tree, also known as the "thorny locust", grows quickly to a height up to 100 feet tall, but is short-lived, living "only" around 120 years. It is popular as an ornamental plant, especially in colder climates where few other trees can survive. It tolerates many conditions that would cause stress to other trees, like urban environments, alkaline soil, heat and drought. One of the reasons that this Honey Locust for sale is so popular is due to the fact that it transplants so easily.
