  • Description

  • Notes

Shademaster Honeylocust is a deciduous tree with upright, ascending branches and a spreading habit. It has small, pinnately compounded leaves, resulting in filtered, dappled shade. Fall color is yellow; the tiny leaves readily compost in the landscape. Grows about 45 feet tall and 35 feet wide. A good shade tree for the landscape, lawn, house, or sidewalk.
