Looking for a tree that can handle harsh conditions and provide ample shade? Look no further than the Gleditsia triacanthos, commonly known as the Honey Locust. It can grow up to 30 meters tall, with delicate bright green leaves that cast a light shade. The tree produces large pods, which have been used to make tea for the treatment of indigestion and measles, while the juice of the pods is antiseptic. The tree needs full sun and is salt tolerant, making it ideal for city environments. It grows quickly and is parent to many good street trees. It's also a potential source of anticancer compounds, with current research examining the leaves. The pulp of the tree's seedpods is sweet and can be eaten raw or made into sugar, while young seedpods can be cooked and eaten. So why wait? Plant a Honey Locust today and enjoy its benefits for years to come.
