Black Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) is a deciduous tree with fragrant, white flowers and feathery foliage. It’s a popular choice for landscaping due to its rapid growth, hardiness, and ability to tolerate a variety of soil conditions. Black Locusts can be used as shade trees, specimen trees, or for creating windbreaks or privacy screens.
It produces white, fragrant flowers that bloom in late spring which are an important source of food for honeybees. Their deep root systems help to stabilize soil and prevent erosion. While their wood is durable and resistant to decay, it can be invasive in some regions.
