Description

The listing, Honey Locust Tree Seeds (honeysuckle fragrance) has ended.

Winner will get (5) Honey Locust Tree Seeds.

These seeds are from a honey locust tree in my yard. If you love the smell of honeysuckle, you will LOVE this tree, it has a heavenly scent of honeysuckle flowers.

You can look up how to plant and care for this tree online, but I will share what Ive learned and some facts about this tree below.

For planting these and for faster germination, I always soak the seeds at first in hot water and let soak for 24 hours before planting. I've just started this to test the seeds out and so far have 100% germination when I soak seeds the first. It only takes 1-2 weeks to sprout when I do it this way.

Honey Locust Tree care & facts:
The honey locust is an attractive, broadleaf tree with leaves similar to acacia or mimosa trees. It has wonderful honeysuckle fragrant flowers in the spring. Its a fast-growing tree that can grow to 20-25 feet in 6-7 years, and reach a total height of 70 feet. They are great shade trees & hardy, tolerating drought and pollution well. Grass can be easily grown underneath it as during the summer it casts a filtered light through its leaves.
Very drought tolerant and do well in most soils. For planting, space 20 to 30 feet apart, as the trees do grow rapidly.
The scientific name is Gleditsia triacanthos inermis. It is a deciduous, perennial tree & native to North America. The honey locust tree has a wide canopy and this helps grass to grow in its shade. It has a rapid growth rate and lives up to an average age of 100 years & can survive even with moderate irrigation in case there is less rainfall. Full sun or in a partly shady climate.

Surely you have some that have sprouted up around your yard; can't you list some live plants? I just won wisteria with roots for 15,050 credits and had gotten some seeds of the same for just a few credits. Check and see if you can't find some rooted sprouts you can list.....look up in the gutters, in the flower beds, in the neighbors' yard......somewhere you should have some!!!!! I have lots more credits than I do time to plant and nurse seeds!!!!! PLEASE????

Lol, um ok I will look, they do sprout here and there and usually get mowed over. But I will look and see if I can get one. Maybe I can sprout a few with some of the seeds I have if I cant find any right away :)

I just won one of the seeds auction. But would still bid on rooted ones if you find some nice ones and want to list them. Did you look on the roof? Usually what I don't want appears in the most awful places. Since I am not able right now to do yard work I just discovered a beautiful dogwood that is at least 10 feet high too close to the house. And I have a poke salad (Arkansas spelling!) that is almost eight feet tall in a flower bed; never saw one that tall. Oh, well, off to the clinic for another IV treatment. Will keep checking and bidding as I need to spend some credits!! Later.....

I will see what I can do :)
That's awesome you found those trees. I wish I had more land to have more trees. I would have a good variety if I could :)
