The Thornless Honey Locust is a beautiful shade tree for any garden, growing to around 45 feet in height and up to 35 feet across. It is a natural form of the wild Honey Locust so it doesn’t have the fierce thorns of the wild tree. The shade it produces is not dense and it creates shade that many other plants, including grass, will grow beneath, making it a good choice for a smaller garden. It grows about 3 feet a year so it will quickly mature and become a beautiful feature of your garden. It is a very hardy tree, tolerant of poor soil, urban conditions deer and salt.
